Abstract

Technologies are provided for verification bypass in an automated dispensing pharmacy. In some embodiments, a computing system can identify a first automation device from a group of automation devices that dispense unit-of-use packages. The computing system can then cause a state of verification bypass for the first automation device to transition to an active state at a first time. At a second time after the first time, the computing system can detect dispense of a unit-of-use package from the first automation device, and can then determine that a time interval elapsed from the first time to the second time is less than or equal to a defined duration. The computing system can therefore designate the unit-of-use package as a verified item.
