PREPARING MEDICAL REPORTS FOR BINDING

It is important that you follow.our guidelines for preparing your Reports so that we can process your order more efficiently at the Bindery:

We must have a properly filled out Blue Bindery Shipment Form with your order at the time we pick it up. Attach an alphabetized, itemized list of the titles and quantities included in your order. 

Check all Reports to make sure that anything to be “bound in” is not damaged.

Remove all stapled cards and paperclips from the Reports. Volumes containing staples or paperclips will result in additional charges based on the time necessary to remove them.

Arrange the Reports in the proper binding sequence. We will bind your volumes as we receive them.

Tie the issues together. Use twine or a heavy rubberband to hold them together.

Fill out a binding slip for each Report. Be sure that you include the necessary numbers and years, and that all the information given is correct.

If you are sending in a new title (not previously bound by your facility) be sure to include all necessary instructions including title, numbers and years, print and Buckram color choice and stamping instructions.

Volume thickness: It is not advisable to oversew volumes over 3” thick. Thicker volumes should be split and bound as two volumes.

If the Reports have tape, labels or photos: To prevent an uneven build-up in thickness we must add “stubbing paper” prior to binding. This will result in additional charges based on the time necessary to prepare them.

X Rays will be placed in paper envelopes and bound in place. Charges are based on the time required to prepare them.

Pack the Reports in regular sized boxes. Indicate the contents on the outside of each box and have them ready for pick up on your scheduled day.
