Medical Record Scanning in Northridge, CA

Northridge Medical Record Scanning

In today’s world, most people expect fast turnaround on lab and medical results from their doctor. They also want easy access to their personal medical records. Record Nations Northridge can link you with medical records scanning, medical records storage, Electronic Health Record Systems (EHR) and other services to make for efficient and effective office operations. Our curated network of document management pros can change your patient charts into digital form to integrate them with the EHR you use in your practice.

The Pros and Cons of Electronic Health Records

Medical providers in California must keep patient records for at least seven years after the last patient encounter. Digitizing your patient records will transform how you do business with your staff and patients. You’ll have patient information at your fingertips and easily accessible to authorized office and clinical staff. You’ll be able to electronically prescribe medications with links to pharmacies, other healthcare professionals and ancillary services.

There is some risk that comes with using paper in the office, and sometimes not having the most recent documents in the patient’s chart during a visit can affect a diagnosis. There’s always the risk of misplacing a paper document, misfiling it or breaching confidentiality with a document being seen by an unauthorized person. Record Nations Northridge has a local provider network that offers customized services for clinics, private medical or dental practices, hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare-related businesses.
