Why the paperwork matters

An undocumented device is a finding waiting to happen

Off-site destruction is a sound choice for most clinics. Between your back office and the processing floor, custody is documented rather than observed.

For drives holding protected health information, some practice managers want proof at the serial level, which removes the ambiguity of in-house methods that leave no record.

Incident exposure
According to IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report 2026, healthcare breaches average $6.64 million, the highest of any industry for the 13th year.
Audit readiness
Records tied to each serial number answer the first question an auditor asks: where did this device go?
