TROY SecureRx Revolutionizes Prescription Printing
CMS compliant prescriptions on plain paper
Costa Mesa, CA, - December 2, 2008: TROY Group,
Inc., a worldwide leader in secure on-demand printing
solutions, announces the first digital printer for
printing the federally mandated security features
onto plain laser bond paper. The TROY SecureRx printer
allows healthcare providers to significantly reduce
the cost of printing prescriptions while complying
with the security regulations established by the
Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
The fully configured TROY 3005 SecureRx printer
uses the HP LaserJet P3005 printer as its foundation
and provides customers 35 pages per minute print
speed. Ideal for printing prescriptions and patient
discharge documents, the TROY SecureRx printer can
be used to print any other documents in hospitals,
ambulatory facilities, and clinical environments.
Healthcare providers can choose from a fully configured
TROY SecureRx printer or purchase a TROY SecureRx
firmware module to upgrade existing HP P3005 LaserJet
printers.
This printer was developed to help hospitals comply
with the new regulations that went into effect on
October 1, 2008 requiring prescriptions be issued
with copy-evident, erasure-evident and anti-counterfeit
security features, to be eligible for CMS reimbursement.
The TROY SecureRx printing solution includes HP-authorized
security enhancements from TROY providing on-demand
printable features that meet and exceed all three
of the security features required by CMS.
TROY security enhancements include the new TROY
copy prevention pantograph technology, patents pending,
as well as TROY customizable micro-print font which
helps to address the need for copy-evident features. TROYmark™,
variable print watermark, is an industry recognized
feature that provides the erasure-evident feature.
A warning indicator which is built into each prescription
provides the anti-counterfeit security features required
by CMS.
“Healthcare providers have told to us that
the TROY SecureRx printer is an investment which
is easy to justify”, states Larry Landtiser,
Senior Vice President and General Manager of TROY
Group, Inc. “The TROY SecureRx printer eliminates
the need for expensive prescription paper, dedicated
prescription printers, and the labor intensive costs
associated with chain of custody management of prescription
forms, and companies are able to see a return on
their investment within months of purchasing.”
For an even higher level of security and prevention
against alteration of prescriptions TROY recommends
using TROY Security Toner, an anti-fraud technology
which forces a bright red stain to appear if chemical
alteration is attempted. This addition to the
SecureRx solution provides the benefits of chemically
sensitive paper at a fraction of the cost.
The TROY 3005 SecureRx printer is the first in the
series of TROY SecureRx solutions to be introduced.
To complete the solution, TROY provides full software
integration support to any Electronic Medical Record
(EMR) system. To learn more about the CMS requirements
