Components of a Secure Medical Healthcare Record Program:
Document Shredding
- All Cintas locations are corporately owned - no franchised locations - so members receive consistent service throughout the country.
- State of the art trucks shred up to 8,000 pounds per hour so docks are not tied up for longer than necessary.
- Containers and shredding trucks automatically lock so confidential documents are always secure.
- Service professionals collect material throughout the facility at no additional charge. Facilities will not have to deliver containers to the dock.
- Cintas works with the customer to place the bins at the most accessible, efficient area within the facilities.
- Service Representatives work with members to train them on the importance of HIPAA and document security.
- Trucks have automatic feeding and dumping to eliminate human contact with confidential matter.
- On-site Training Programs
Document Storage
Cintas provides a specific storage area for medical records, which provides the high-level service that is especially needed by the medical industry and for HIPAA compliance. We have a trained staff dedicated specifically to your medical files and X-Rays.
Document Imaging
Our imaging service is defined as converting / scanning paper documents to CD-ROMs or other digital files for fast, convenient access via email or web-based systems. This gives you multiple options for retrieval or storage of your files. As more healthcare organizations migrate to electronic medical records (EMRs), it's important to take the proper steps to reduce risk and prevent medical liability suits.
Cintas will help your healthcare organization protect the privacy and security of health information while remaining compliant with government standards using EMRs.
