he
way medical facilities handle information changed in
2002 with the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability
Act (HIPAA). Now, limiting access to patient medical
records is not only simply appropriate, it is the law.
In addition, limited hospital budgets mean squeezing
more and more into already crowded medical facilities.
A records management system can ease the burden of regulations
and provide much needed space for new treatment or patient
care areas.
Increased
Productivity
Getting files in the right place at the right time increases
productivity. Not just everyday business activity, but in
the case of audits, litigation or regulators checking corporate
compliance the time spent tracking down files translates
to less time spent on real business activities. Safe Archives
will improve accountability with file bar code tracking features
and secure storage.
Reduced
Hidden Storage Costs
How large is your storage room? Chances are that valuable
space should be used more effectively. Each health care department
or facility has unique storage needs, from patient records
and x-rays, to reference libraries and corporate information.
Safe Archives manages your information and frees up resources
for more important uses.
Regulation
Compliance
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of
1996 (HIPAA) created several healthcare reforms. Its goals
include streamlining industry inefficiencies, reducing paperwork,
making it easier to detect and prosecute fraud and abuse
and enabling workers of all professions to change jobs, even
if they (or family members) had pre-existing medical conditions.
