Unistat 38941 / Avery Laser L7160 Type Labels

L7160 labels are formatted to be suitable for letters, notes and sample bottles.

Patient name and address details are printed on the top half of the label and Date of Birth (DoB), Health Care Card (HCC) and Medicare numbers are printed on the bottom half. This allows the label to be cut in half and used as an address label.

These Communicare labels are designed for printing on Avery Laser L7160 label stationery or equivalent (21 labels per sheet, each 63.5 mm x 38.1 mm).

Unistat 38935 / Avery Laser DL30 Type Labels

DL30 labels are formatted for sample bottles.

Along with basic patient identity information, this label features:

A heading, which is usually set to indicate the place where the sample was taken, for example, Millennium Health
Spaces for date, time and specimen to be written by hand

These Communicare labels are designed for printing on Avery Laser DL30 label stationery or equivalent (30 labels per sheet, each 64.0 mm x 25.4 mm).

Unistat 38937 / Avery Laser L7163 Type Labels

L7163 labels are also suitable for sample bottles but are larger and contain more detail than the DL30 labels. The additional details include patient address, patient Aboriginality and the name of the health service.

These Communicare labels are designed for printing on Avery Laser L7163 label stationery or equivalent (14 labels per sheet, each 99.1 mm x 38.1 mm).

Custom Report Type Labels

If available, you can select a specific report that has been written to suit your needs. This report can be adapted for a specific label size and to contain specific data. It can also be written to print to a specialised label printer so it can print one label rather than an A4 page of labels.

Alternatively, you can use the generic label report found at Reports > Patients > Patient Mailing Label that uses Avery L7042D labels.
