Our monitored, secure storage facilities protect your documents from being lost or stolen. You can limit access to your files and set different levels of security for your files as needed. You can rest easy knowing your documents are safe with Record Nations Norcross.

Medical Records Custodian

When a Norcross healthcare facility closes, a person or company is appointed as the custodian to manage the patient records. Georgia requires medical records to be kept for a minimum for 10 years.

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 Norcross can help you find a local provider to manage your records, release needed information and destroy the records after the retention period.
