When you get a prescription from your physician, it might look like just a small note pad that they use but the truth is that those prescription pads contain a number of security features. When you are in charge of ordering prescription pads in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, California, or Massachusetts, or other states, go with a printer that has decades of experience in printing specialized items – like Park Press Printers. We are approved specialty printers for these states because we can include all of the needed requirements that help to keep prescription pads from being copied or used in unlawful manners. Contact us today to learn about all of the security features that we can handle for your order of prescription pads.
Understanding The Security Features
From special inks to multiple sized fonts to even the basic information of the facility that is preprinted on the forms, we can include any of the needed features that any state has as their requirements. For example, the state of California requires at least some portion of the prescription pad to use thermochromic ink. This is an ink that will change color when different temperatures are applied to it, such as the heat from a person’s hand.
Most states require that certain facility or prescriber information comes preprinted on the prescription pads so that this is always readable and not to be changed. Along with this preprinted information may come the requirement to sequentially number each sheet of the prescription pad with a unique number that allows for easy tracking. This can help deter fraud when these numbers have been used and the prescription can be denied when it has been shown to already have been used.
Authorized Printers Who Can Create Prescription Pads
You can’t just go down to your local printer or copier location and request prescription pads. This is because with all of the needed security features that they must have, some of which vary by state, it can be a challenge to comply with these needs. By intentionally limiting the facilities that are authorized to produce prescription pads, it helps to narrow down any potential fraud to prevent a lot of unauthorized or stolen prescription pads from entering circulation. We are proud to be an authorized printer of ordered prescription pads for most states.
We have taken the time and effort to show that we can produce prescription pads that comply with a variety of states including New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, California, and Massachusetts. This means that, along with any other printing needs you may have, Park Press Printers can handle your order of prescription pads and you can be assured that they will comply with your state’s requirements.
