Breaking news! We are approved to print the new AB 149 California scripts that are necessary for 1/1/2020 production!! California's Assembly Bill 149 delays the requirement of including a uniquely serialized number and barcode on a controlled substance script until (no later than) January 1, 2020. The addition of the barcode is not required until January 1, 2021.
Our current California laser Rx sheets are 8-½" x 11" sheets with a 5-½" x 4-¼" (blue background) script printed in the corner (includes perfs). The script location is available in two formats: the upper left of the sheet, or the bottom left of the sheet.
Our new offering of California Laser Rx sheets are 8-½ x 11" with the full page script. (item# PRESCASHLBLI)
