Keep patient information organised
Medical practices need access to the right patient information while managing growing volumes of records. MDS helps store, organise and retrieve paper medical records, reducing the filing work that takes up staff time and office space.
We can collect and pack files at your premises, working with your practice’s instructions for organising and identifying records.
Move from paper to electronic records
Our scanning service can convert medical documents to PDF and support the transition to electronic medical records. Files can be scanned on demand, allowing your practice to move through its archive in a way that suits day-to-day work.
Discuss how you want a patient record grouped, the format you need and how your team will access it. We can help bring information held in separate files into a more consistent record.
Retrieval and retention
Authorised members of your team can request stored records or scanned copies. Tell MDS what is needed at the point of care so we can discuss an appropriate retrieval arrangement.
Our records management process uses barcodes to track stored files. Retention dates and customer authorisation help manage what happens to records when they are no longer required.
