Proshred^® is Detroit’s #1 Provider for Confidential Document Shredding

Medical professionals across the world and in the Detroit area are trusted by their patients. Healthcare companies hold numerous amounts of confidential patient data and are expected to keep this information safe and secure. One way of maintaining this trust with patients is to securely shred documents that include sensitive patient information. Medical record shredding guarantees confidential data is destroyed and patient privacy is protected.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires all U.S. medical and healthcare facilities to properly dispose of data that contains “Protected Health Information” or PHI. This ensures medical records are properly handled and later destroyed before discarded.

In recent years, HIPAA has focused on Covered Entities, such as medical clinics. All healthcare facilities, including these covered entities, must provide all employees and volunteers with proper training on how to dispose of PHI. Companies that do not meet HIPAA regulations could receive fines.
