Mailing Labels – Specific to Doctor
Summary:
This Report Generator Report will produce a list of Active Account Holder names and addresses with instructions on how to print labels. This report is typically used when sending out mass mailings as it will generally only produce one label per household.
This report will use specific patient file criteria to build the list. Labels print only for the Doctor specified. Only patient account holders will be selected. Patient files which have been set to inactive appointment intervals are eliminated from this list. Those patient files flagged as “Inactive” are eliminated from this list.
Recommended labels are: Avery Labels for Laser Printers Product Number 5160. The resulting label printout will be 3 across and 10 down on a standard size sheet of 8 ½ x 11 (30 labels per page).
