Let My Retired Doctor scan your patient records for improved privacy and security

If you are planning to retire from your practice soon, you need to decide what to do with your patients’ medical records. My Retired Doctor can help. We can not only serve as your official records custodian, but also help you create a cutting-edge digital database of your patients’ records. Here’s why you should definitely consider availing yourself of our scanning services.

Digital Records Provide Improved Patient Access

One of your primary concerns in selecting a records custodian is finding someone who you can trust to ensure your patients always have ready access to their medical information. By converting your patients’ files to electronic format, we can make it even easier for patients to get their medical records fast. While a paper record would have to be copied and then mailed to the patient or their new physician, an electronic record can be transferred almost instantly over the internet. This enables patients to get timelier, better-informed care from new physicians.

Digital Records Are More Secure Against Natural Disasters

Depending on who you choose as your medical records custodian, your patients’ records might end up stashed in a hospital basement somewhere where water damage or fire could destroy them. Of course, if you choose My Retired Doctor as your records custodian we will keep your paper records in a safe place. However, you can enjoy extra piece of mind by having an electronic backup copy of your patient records collection made and stored on a server in a separate location from the paper records.

Digital Records Enable Superior Privacy in Delivery

Paper copies of medical records that get sent through the mail could become lost in transit or be opened illegally by someone other than the recipient. With electronic records, it is easier to ensure privacy. We will deliver the electronic records to the patient or their authorized agent via a secure online download that only they should be able to access.

We Create Clear, Legible High-Resolution Scans

One of the advantages of using My Retired Doctor specifically is that we maintain very high standards in our scanning process. We use text recognition software and high-resolution imaging to ensure that the information on the paper records is captured clearly, accurately, and legibly. Furthermore, each electronic record is subject to a strict quality control process so you can rest assured that every patient will get a high-quality electronic record.
