It is used for information printing and bagging of an item; where as:
Printing item information is one step;
Bagging the item is a second step;
Both printing and bagging steps involve paper work that can be combined into one step;
This invention is intended to combine both information printing and bagging of an item;
It is a printable bagging case; printable sheet or multi sheet folder designed as a bag;
So that the sheet or folder can be first printed with the item information; and then used for bagging the item
It is a new kind of printable folder that is also used for bagging;
2. Discussion of the Prior Art
The U.S. patent to Arnold B, Bloch; Gilbert [U.S. Pat. No. 6,652,984] is for a paper laminate sheeting capable of being converted by conventional equipment into envelops, grocery bags and other dilatable container products that initially are in flat state and are normally made of paper;
This is a process of producing a pre printed core of bags that are later cut to provide separate pre printed bags is different from the present invention since it is for instant printing of different information specific for each item or drug

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

I am a pharmacist; and my job requires that I visually verify and match the dispensed drug with the picture of the prescribed drug on the computer screen and make sure they both the same;
After that I click accept; by clicking accept the printer would print a paper that contains both patient information and drug information;
The patient information part is to identify the right patient; and the drug information part is specific for each drug and is private information
First I have to tear off the patient information part from the drug information part;
Second I have to fold the drug information part and make it fit inside a bag;
Third I have to insert the folded drug information part with the dispensed drug into the bag;
Forth I have to staple the patient information part to the bag; for patient identification purposes and make sure that the bag is stapled and sealed;
This process takes a lot of pharmacist time and effort; and is also subject to mistakes;
I thought of an idea that would combine both information printing and bagging of an item or a drug with securing its privacy information if required; an idea that would save time and effort of the pharmacist;
I thought of Privacy Information Securing Bagging Case;
It is an object of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary to use the privacy information securing bagging case to combine both information printing and bagging of an item or a drug in one single step; to avoid the unnecessary steps of tearing, folding, inserting and stapling of the printed information paper; necessary for bagging the item;
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to avoid tearing printed paper to separate different information parts;
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to avoid folding printed paper to fit inside a bag;
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to avoid inserting the folded part of the printed paper into a bag.
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to avoid stapling a patient or a person information label to a bag.
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to save time and effort.
It is further objective of the invention that the pharmacist or other beneficiary uses the privacy information securing bagging case to avoid mistakes involved in the two separate steps; printing specific item information and bagging the same item; such as switching two different patient information labels.
