4 piece Rx paper

Post by Rickliftig » Thu Sep 11, 2008 6:41 am

I am using 4 piece, tamper-proof Rx paper (It's perforated in quarters). Is there a way to print more than one Rx at a time (for the same patient of course) so that I can utilize more than just one quarter?

So do you then just waste the other quaters of the sheet or is there a workaround?

At this time, I am shredding them. I'm also keep them in a locked area as I assume they would be a fairly desirable item.

well, you could turn the paper 180 degrees and use at least one more quarter.

Is it possible to separate all four pieces and then print each individually as separate pages? Where can we buy this paper?

Jorge -

The paper from Microformat inc. http://www.4securitypaper.com, http://www.rxpaper.com, http://www.highsecuritychecks.com (all the same company).
$70 for 500 sheets. It is rapidly becoming state law for all prescriptions to be printed on tamper-proof paper. I ordered the 8.5x11 four part forms because the printers handle them a lot better than the smaller forms. When I am going crazy getting a patient squared away, the last thing that I need is a paper jam.
