UNIT PATENT RECORD CONVERSIONS AND SPECIAL PROJECTS

Sharing electronic records, improving care, saving lives

More and more, patient care is coordinated among a number of specialists in different departments and facilities, including outpatient clinics. The ability to quickly and securely share complete patient records electronically - among authorized users in distributed locations - can be a matter of life or death. Iron Mountain enables this critical capability through Virtual Unit Patient Record™ (VUPR). In addition, we provide a range of special services at your facility - essentially becoming an extension of your in-house medical records department.

These services include:

• Dropfiling - filing individual loose sheets into original charts
• Interfiling - organizing records in their proper sequence
• Medical Record Assembly - compiling records from multiple admissions and/or departments into a single Unit Patient Record
• Secure Shredding - destruction of inactive records and media that have reached the end of their retention dates
• New System Design and Implementation - development of systems and processes to make in-house record departments more efficient and productive

VUPR: sharing an accurate, complete view of patient records

Supported by a fully indexed, software-based file tracking system, VUPR provides users a consolidated view of a patient’s medical records via the Iron Mountain Connect™ online portal – no matter how large the records, where they originated, or where they are currently stored. With our easy-to-use portal, you can access medical records and film inventories online 24/7.
