U.S. Postage Rates Rise in May, 2009
If you already use DP Informer, then you are probably not very
concerned about the planned price increase at the U.S. Postal Service (read the details here).
DP Informer users still use the mail, of course, but not nearly as much
as they did before they automated their DrugPak reporting functions
through the DP Informer module.
The increase this month changes
a 1-ounce First-Class stamp from 42¢ to 44¢. An extra 2¢ a stamp might
not be so bad, right? Also consider the 3¢ envelope, and cheap paper
is still less than a penny a page, and the elusive cost of ink/toner.
And finally, complete the picture with the man-hours required to fold
and stuff envelopes.
DP Informer costs $1,370. Compare that
cost to what you are currently paying to mail your clients result
letters, random selection packets, statistical reports, DP Billing
invoices and DOT MIS forms. And remember to include the man-hours
involved in all of that.
DP Informer makes it possible for you
to pre-configure the reporting needs of each individual client.
Reports from DP Informer can be delivered via email, fax, export file
or printed, automatically based on your settings. Email can be
delivered with a 128-bit encryption password-protected attachment. (Click here for more information on DP Informer.)
