Health Records Management

The most specialized solutions from the most experienced people

AMES® can guide health care managers and HIM professionals in organizing to meet the health records management challenges of today — and tomorrow.

Most health care institutions today must support a hybrid data environment, with medical records storage in both physical and electronic formats. In a busy hospital, these records often must be maintained in — and work must flow efficiently among — more than 20 specialized departments. All must comply with ever changing, and ever more stringent, regulations concerning privacy and security. At the same time, health records management equipment and processes should meet best-practice standards for cost-effectiveness, space utilization, optimum retrieval, ensured security, and meaningful use of technology.

Fortunately, AMES® brand patient records management services and medical records filing and storage offerings can help you face these challenges and meet these goals.

Perhaps even more important, AMES can help build your future. We’ll serve as a resource to guide you in making informed decisions for a timely, effective transition to electronic medical records (EMR) systems.
