Re-submissions
In order to avoid a duplicate charge when you re-submit a fingerprint at the request
of the MSDH, you should follow these simple procedures:
- If you submitted the original fingerprint by mail, then please re-submit by mail.
If you submitted electronically, then please re-submit electronically. Otherwise, you will have a "different" transaction number and you will be
charged twice.
- If you have FingerPro ID Remote WS installed in your facility please read
the topic "Re-submitting Record" in the FingerPro ID User's Manual and follow instructions carefully.

Fingerprints
If you do not have staff already trained to roll inked fingerprints,please
do not roll the fingerprints without being trained.
We would encourage you to either 1) have them rolled at your local police or sheriff's office,
or 2) have a person who has expertise in this area to train your staff so that you can send the fingerprints for applicants hired
from July 1, 2003 forward to the MSDH in a timely manner.

Remote Transmissions
Fingerpro ID software is available in a remote version free of charge to all healthcare
facilities licensed by the Mississippi State Department of Health. There is a small
charge for installation of the software and training. When used with an FBI certified desktop scanner (requiring a rolled fingerprint card) and an
Internet connection, your facility is able to electronically transmit fingerprints to the Mississippi Department of Health.
Desktop Scanners
The desktop scanners currently FBI certified to be utilized with FingerPro
ID are: the HP ScanJet 5470C, the Epson Perfection 3200 Photo, the Epson
Perfection 3170 Photo, and the Epson Perfection 4490 Photo desktop scanners. The Epson Perfection 4490 Photo is the only scanner currently sold on the
market.
If your facility wishes to purchase a card scan device from a third party
please have your device vendor contact AD&S at (601) 992-4121.
Livescan Devices
FingerPro ID Remote Workstation utilizes FBI-certified livescan devices.
AD&S is responsible for all livescan hardware procurement and configuration before the installation.
If your facility wishes to purchase a livescan device from a third party please have your
livescan vendor contact AD&S at (601) 992-4121. Currently there is only one livescan device, made by
IDENTIX, that was tested and can operate with FingerPro ID without additional
testing. All new Identix livescan devices installed after 11/10/2006 should submit to the ID System Administrator
at MSDH the facility name, the livescan make, model and serial number.
