Reducing Risk For The Life Cycle of Your Information

X-Rays are part of a patient’s confidential information and are protected under HIPAA. Disposal of film must be done in a way that preserves the confidentiality of the information. X-Rays also contain hazardous material that is toxic to the environment and human health if not disposed of properly.

The Importance of Proper X-Ray Disposal

X-rays, often containing sensitive medical data, require secure and compliant disposal to prevent identity theft or unauthorized access. Failing to properly destroy x-rays can result in data breaches, legal ramifications, and violations of patient privacy laws. Whether you’re disposing of outdated patient records or replacing old equipment, choosing a professional x-ray destruction service is the best way to guarantee that your sensitive information is permanently and safely destroyed.

Our Unique X-Ray Destruction Process

Crown Information Management employs a thorough and environmentally responsible approach to x-ray destruction that includes several crucial steps:

  1. Secure Jacket Removal: We begin by removing and securely destroying the x-ray jackets that may contain sensitive patient information. This is the first step in ensuring that all identifying information is completely eliminated.

  2. Chemical Washing and Silver Extraction: Next, the x-ray film is washed with a specialized chemical solution to remove any remaining data. As part of our eco-friendly process, we extract the valuable silver from the film, ensuring it is recycled properly.

  3. Recycling PET Plastic: The remaining PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) plastic, often used in the x-ray film, is cleaned and prepared for recycling. This contributes to reducing waste and supports our commitment to sustainability.
