Certified PHI Destruction for Marshall Healthcare
Under HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 requirements, electronic protected health information on disposed devices must be rendered irretrievable — STS provides certified destruction meeting this standard. Our PHI sanitization workflow implements NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 purge and destroy methods: cryptographic erasure, three-pass minimum overwrite, NSA-listed degaussing, and certified physical shredding at 1/4-inch particle size. Method selection depends on device class and compliance posture.
Every engagement includes serial-number-specific Certificates of Destruction, chain-of-custody documentation from pickup through final disposition, and compliance reporting formatted for OCR audit review. Destruction workflows for Harrison County healthcare providers are typically scheduled within the same week and completed with certificates delivered within 48 hours of processing. On-site destruction is available when retained custody is required.

DoD 5220.22-M Overwrite
Seven-pass Department of Defense standard for software-based sanitization of functional clinical drives

Medical Equipment & Imaging Device Recycling
STS processes the full range of medical IT and diagnostic hardware retired by Harrison County healthcare providers — including PACS workstations, ultrasound units, patient monitors, infusion pumps, lab analyzers, and retired EHR workstations. Embedded storage devices holding PHI undergo the same NIST 800-88 sanitization workflow as primary IT assets before any recycling or remarketing decision is finalized.
Our Marshall medical equipment recycling workflow accommodates department refreshes, full-facility decommissioning, and end-of-lease medical device returns. Item-level asset tagging with serial capture produces audit-ready inventory before any device leaves the provider's custody, with optional photo documentation for high-value imaging equipment and biomedical assets.
Imaging & Diagnostic
Ultrasound units, PACS workstations, patient monitors, and radiology IT hardware with embedded storage
EHR & Clinical Workstations
Nursing station PCs, EHR terminals, exam room workstations, and telemetry carts with embedded PHI
Lab & Pharmacy IT
Laboratory analyzers, pharmacy automation, and specimen tracking systems with HIPAA-covered data
Asset Remarketing
Fair market value recovery on functional biomedical and IT equipment after complete sanitization
Business Associate Agreements & Chain of Custody
Healthcare providers disposing of devices containing electronic PHI require a signed Business Associate Agreement with any vendor that creates, receives, maintains, or transmits PHI on their behalf. STS executes standard BAAs before any engagement begins, establishing the HIPAA-compliant contractual framework required under 45 CFR §164.314 for downstream liability protection.
Every device is logged at pickup with serial number, make, model, and condition grading by trained STS technicians. GPS-tracked transport from your Marshall site through processing generates a continuous chain-of-custody record with signed transfer logs at each handoff. Final documentation packages include serialized Certificate of Destruction, weight tickets, method-of-destruction attestation, and downstream R2v3 smelter tracking — audit-ready and aligned with OCR documentation expectations for HIPAA Security Rule investigations.
