The shredder destroys prescription bottles and labels, commonly found in pharmacies, hospitals, medical facilities, clinics etc. Prescription bottles often have labels that contain sensitive, private patient information and must be destroyed according to the Federal Government HIPAA law.
This is a significant time and money saving advantage for pharmacies. They no longer have to pay someone to peel off hard-to-remove prescription labels from pill bottles. The shredder destroys the entire plastic bottle, lid and adhesive label. It also may be used to shred paper.
The major benefit of the UC5500 ScriptStroyer shredder is the reduction of the possibility of identity theft. The shredder will fit underneath most pharmacy counters. That means it stays out of the way of all pharmacy staff. For convenience purposes, the ScriptStroyer shredder includes an automatic oiler, significantly extending the life of the shredder.
