Every Arlington medical IT asset disposition engagement includes a complete compliance package: signed BAA, serial-number-specific Certificate of Destruction, chain-of-custody manifest, weight ticket, and downstream tracking records — formatted for HIPAA audit preparedness, TJC accreditation reviews, and OCR investigations. Healthcare IT managers typically expect this level of documentation for every device disposed — included as standard in every STS engagement.
