Abstract
A prescription paper has reproduction material placed on selected areas of the back side of the paper so that prescription information can be transferred directly onto the patient's records while the prescription writer is writing the prescription. The reproduction material can be a carbonized backing or any other suitable reproduction material. The front side of the prescription paper comprises at least two lines that are separated by a pre-selected distance to match the distance between adjacent lines on the medical record. The prescription writer can align the lines on the prescription paper to the lines on the medical record so that information can be neatly transferred to the space between the lines on the medical record.
Claims18
A prescription sheet in combination with a medical record, the combination comprising:
- a prescription sheet having a first and a second side with an area for writing a prescription which is lined with lines being a pre-selected distance apart formed on the first side of the prescription sheet wherein the prescription sheet further includes reproduction material positioned on the second side of the prescription sheet at a location corresponding to the area for writing the prescription
- a medical record that includes a patient history area for writing medical records for the patient wherein the patient history area is lined with the lines being the pre-selected distance apart corresponding to the line separation of the prescription sheet such that the prescription writer can position the prescription sheet on the medical record and align the lines of the prescription sheet with lines of the patient history area so that when the prescription writer writes the prescription, the reproduction material reproduces the prescription onto the medical record.
A method of simultaneously writing prescription and recording the prescription onto a medical record comprising:
- placing the prescription sheet onto the medical record such that the lines of a prescription area of the prescription sheet are substantially aligned with the lines of the medical record;
- and
- writing the prescription in the prescription area while substantially maintaining the alignment between the prescription sheet, wherein writing the prescription area results in a reproduction material of the prescription sheet transferring the written prescription onto the medical record.
A prescription paper for a prescription writer to transfer prescription information directly onto a patient's record having a plurality of adjacent lines spaced to receive information, comprising:
- a front side having a selected area for the prescription writer to write down prescription information for patients, wherein the selected area comprises at least two adjacent lines separated by a pre-determined distance, wherein the pre-determined distance is substantially equal to the distance between two adjacent lines located on the patient's record;
- a back side having a reproduction material, wherein the reproduction material is adapted to be positioned on the patient's record in a manner such that the at least two adjacent lines on the selected area of the prescription paper aligns with the adjacent lines on the patient's record so that the reproduction material transfers the prescription information directly onto the space between the adjacent lines on the patient's record while the prescription writer is writing down the prescription information.
