Medical records scanning and medical records storage coincide to keep medical records and billing information safe and within compliance. Scanning allows you to digitize your medical practice, while storage provides a safe place to store physical documents that need to be retained as backup or for legal reasons.
Record Nations has professional scanning and storage providers that specialize in both to cover your practice on all sides. Their image processing and storage facilities are HIPAA and HITECH-compliant.Â
Preparing Medical Records for Scanning
- Scanning is the first step in digitizing medical records. It is a hassle-free process that will improve the flow of information and save you money on physical storage.
- Here are the steps to get started with your medical record scanning project:
-
- Call us at (619) 205-5031 or fill out the form. We will ask for some details regarding your scanning project and match you with local providers based on your needs.Â
- The local providers will send you free price quotes customized to the specifics of your project.
- You can review and select the provider that best fits your needs. Together you can begin transforming your practice into a digital system.Â
Medical Records Storage Services
Even with an EHR system, you will likely need to store some physical records. With offsite medical records storage services, you will have access to your records if they are needed for retrieval or as backup for critical records. Â
Our storage facilities are secure and constantly monitored to keep your information safe. You set the security for your files and can limit access as needed.Â
Medical Records Custodian
When a healthcare facility closes, a custodian is appointed to manage the patient records. Each county may have different requirements, but California state law requires records to be kept for 7 years.Â
Custodians of medical records can store physical copies in a secure storage facility or scan the documents and store them electronically using an EMR system. With either option, patient records must be readily available upon request. Failure to produce forms could result in fines or penalties.
Record Nations can help you find a local provider to manage your records, release needed information and destroy the records after the retention period. Â
