IMA’s history of medical records
conversion dates as far back as the inception of the
company, in 1979. Our earliest customers were the Neurology
departments of nearly 400 hospital systems throughout
the country. Back then, we specialized in microfilming
continuous form EEG records and also providing certified
destruction of the original documents. Today, we continue
to serve many of the same hospitals, but the applications
for our services have grown substantially.
Medical institutions have an endless need for our services.
Patient financial records, medical histories, EOB’s,
diagnostic test reports, etc…; all need to be
stored in various formats and made available to specific
users. This information grows on a daily basis and there
are laws, such as HIPPA, that enforce special handling
and retention of these records.
For major hospital systems and multi-office facilities,
outsourcing makes sense. It saves money, leads to faster
collections and insures compliance with records retention
policies. When multiple facilities are involved, our secure
online storage and retrieval service is an excellent
way to avoid heavy IT investments and still accomplish
your goals. Your documents remain encrypted and secure,
yet they are accessible anywhere, anytime. With a proper
username and password, your information is easily retrieved
using a standard internet browser. This solution places
no burden upon your IT department and the up front investment
is negligible when compared to the cost of installing
and maintaining a document management system.
