Health data destruction and shredding
Protecting your highly confidential patient data
Managing sensitive patient records requires clear document management procedures. For all health providers, this should include secure document destruction. Whether you collect patient information electronically or hold paper records, there are clear obligations under the Privacy Act. Non-compliance exposes your patients and your practice to risk and potential fines.
As recent identity theft and privacy breaches have shown, sensitive medical information can be a target for fraud and criminal activity. Poor handling of data can put patients, and your practice, at risk.
We can help ensure your compliance with regular shredding services for patient information forms, faxes, referrals and other printed records. Our office clean-outs and archive box destruction are also helpful when managing old patient records or during a transition to an electronic system. For practices that are mainly electronic, in addition to regular document destruction for paperwork, we can also securely destroy hard drives, mobile devices, laptops and other technology, ensuring no records or patient information can be retrieved.

X-ray shredding
X-rays can be safely recycled, reclaiming valuable silver, mercury and other elements. To ensure your x-ray films are responsibly managed, they need to be kept separate from paper. As the films are handled differently to paper, the little extra effort in removing the envelopes means both the x-rays and paper can be recycled, rather than ending up in landfill.
