PAPER-BASED PRACTICE
- Due to high volume of patient files and long retention periods, there is a continuous need for safe and compliant storage space, which can be very costly.
- In cases of disaster, recovery of files/data is extremely minimal.
- To recover an archived file takes a lot of time, especially if it is not organised properly.
- You need a person to check if files are placed in the right repository or not, which comes at a cost.
VS
PAPERLESS PRACTICE
- A year’s data can be stored in a hard drive or on a cloud-based storage system.
- Maximum chances of disaster recovery by using cloud-based software/platforms.
- Finding a file is very easy as you can search the file name in the system.
- The system can automatically arrange files in an organised manner.
