When a doctor moves from a handwritten pad to a screen, two practical questions come up on day one. How do I stop retyping the same medicines for the fifteenth viral fever of the week? And what do I do about the letterhead pads the clinic has already printed by the thousand? This post covers both.

Templates: write the common case once

A template is a saved starting point. The doctor picks it, adjusts it for this patient and signs off.

A template can belong to
  • An individual doctor
  • The whole clinic

A doctor sees both their own and the clinic-wide templates, with the most used listed first. EMR Templates and Smart Templates are part of every CuraVerto plan, CMS at ₹25,000 per year included, so even a single-doctor clinic can use them from day one.

Two ways to write: Quick EMR and Case Sheet

Quick EMR is for speed. Case Sheet is for a fuller write-up. Both are open to every plan.

Quick EMR
  • Fast, prescription-centred visits
Case Sheet
  • A fuller clinical write-up

Each doctor can set their own default view with a star beside the toggle, and a visit that already has a saved prescription reopens in the view it was written in. This is a workflow choice, not a plan restriction.

Printing: pre-printed pad or blank paper

The choice is about what is already on the paper before it enters the printer.

Pre-printed padBlank paper
Paper you loadYour existing letterhead padPlain paper
What CuraVerto printsThe prescription content only, inside margins you setThe clinic letterhead, logo, address and footer, plus the content
Best whenYou already print pads and want to keep using themYou want no stationery cost, or print at more than one location
SetupSet the top and bottom blank space in millimetres so text clears your header and footerNothing to measure; the clinic identity comes from your settings

The default is pre-printed pad. The print menu lets the person printing choose either option for that print, so a receptionist can override the default when a pad runs out. Measure your own pad with a ruler and print a test page before you use it on patients.

What about prescriptions sent on WhatsApp or saved as files?

A file sent or saved always carries the clinic's identity, whatever your paper default says.

The pad setting is for paper only
A patient receiving a file on their phone has no letterhead underneath it. The pad setting only affects what happens when you print onto physical paper.

For what a prescription must contain before you send it, read our post on sending prescriptions on WhatsApp.

A simple way to decide

Keep the pad if it is paid for. Go blank if your details change often.

  1. STEP 1
    Keep the pad
    Your printed stationery is already paid for. Set the margins once and print a test.
  2. STEP 2
    Move to blank paper
    You are opening a second branch, changing your address, or tired of reprinting pads.
  3. STEP 3
    Not on looks alone
    A legible prescription with every required field matters more than the paper it is on.

Frequently asked questions

Can CuraVerto print a prescription on my existing pre-printed pad?
Yes. CuraVerto's Pre-printed Pad option prints the prescription content without its own letterhead, using header and footer margins you set in millimetres so the text sits inside the clear area of your pad. It is the default paper type.
Can I print on plain paper instead?
Yes. CuraVerto's Blank Paper option prints the clinic logo, address and footer along with the prescription. You can set either option as the clinic default and choose the other for a single print from the print menu.
Are prescription templates available on every CuraVerto plan?
EMR Templates and Smart Templates are included on every CuraVerto plan, from CMS at ₹25,000 per year excluding GST. Templates can be personal to a doctor or shared across the clinic.
Does the pad setting change what I send on WhatsApp?
No. CuraVerto builds documents that are sent or stored with the clinic's identity on them, because the recipient has no letterhead behind the file. The pad and blank paper choice only governs printing onto physical paper.
