CMS compliant prescriptions on plain paper

Last update: 2:30 p.m. EST Dec. 2, 2008
COSTA MESA, Calif., Dec 02, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ --
TROY Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets: TROY), 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(TM), 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 or the
