Keeping Prescription Pads Safe
A prescription pad is a very powerful tool that can wreak havoc on lives if it falls into the wrong hands. This is why it is important to not only keep prescription pads in a very safe location, typically in a locked drawer, room, or safe, but also to have security measures built into the prescription pad. Different states will have different requirements for any prescription pads used within their state, however many of these security features work so well that they are common to nearly every location in the country.
The concept of microprinting is not new, as this is used on our currency, on other documents, as well as prescription pads. This micro printing, when copied even on high-end copiers, will not be legible on the copies. The inks that are used to print prescription pads are also of a highly technical nature. On most prescription pads there is at least one area for inks that are heat sensitive and will turn a different color when body heat is applied.
Not Every Printer Can Do These
While years ago, nearly any printer could produce a prescription pad that followed the various regulations, as the years went by the requirements for these prescription pads by medical facilities as well as state regulations made it more and more difficult for printers to be able to keep up. This is why there are very few printers in the country that have the necessary equipment and infrastructure to properly print prescription pads for doctors and medical facilities.
