ADMITTING AND DISCHARGE STORAGE

Patient charts and files get checked in and out more than the actual patients do. The process of record management storage needs to be controlled. Centralized. Consolidated. Safeguarded. It's never been more critical to protect the privacy of your patient files in your medical records storage system.

SECURED MEDICAL RECORDS STORAGE

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires you to keep all protected health information (PHI) strictly confidential.

Compact shelving systems and rotary systems are available with touch-pad controls to limit access to medical records storage to authorized users only. Other optional features available to keep medical records secure are unit locks, lockable tambour doors, key-pad entry systems and remote access control.

 

 

MEDICAL RECORD STORAGE GOING DIGITAL

Currently only 12-14% of medical facilities utilize electronic medical records (EMR). This goal of transitioning from paper medical records storage to electronic medical records was mandated by the government for 2014. To help with the transition of managing the paper charts for 20, 10 to 3 years while implementing EMR — it is sometimes wise to consider bringing offsite charts back onsite until destruction. Spacesaver's mobile storage systems, Eclipse Powered System™ or mechanical-assist mobile system, and rotary can keep your records storage at the point of need. Controlling access. Increasing accountability. Better managed records storage. And limit the likelihood of their improper use.

The double-banked rotary storage system increases medical record storage capacity up to 400% over conventional drawer files in space-starved departments. Our solutions reduce the need for off-site record storage as well, saving you time and money!
