Health Care Data Destruction Solutions

The health care industry contains some of the most sensitive details about a person’s life. When patients visit a hospital, clinic or even their primary care physician, their personal health care information is stored on a wide variety of devices, including computers, servers, laptops and even diagnostic equipment, like X-rays and MRI machines. While digitized charts provide eased communication, they increase the risk of data breaches. 

Phiston’s extensive array of hard drive destroyers, SSD destroyers, disintegrators and degaussers destroy media to safeguard information and keep your facility compliant with the most stringent regulations. Data destroyed by a Phiston machine is completely unrecoverable.

Here are a few benefits you’ll experience with Phiston’s medical shredding services.

Data Destruction for HIPAA Regulations 

Ensure your hospital or organization meets HIPAA and other relevant compliance standards. HIPAA states that a patient’s personal information must be completely erased when no longer needed and must also remain in your custody until destruction. 

An on-site data destruction program with Phiston equipment allows for the complete physical destruction of hard drives that are no longer in use.

Secure Data Destruction Methods

From portable desktop destroyers to large enterprise-level machines, Phiston provides data destruction solutions that meet the needs and operational scales of your health care organizations. Our machines utilize several methods to delete data permanently, including:

• Shredding: Our SSD and HDD shredders meet many data protection regulations, including HIPAA, by shredding drives and devices into small pieces, making data irretrievable. 
• Disintegrating: This process breaks media into small particles, ideal for better environmental compliance.
• Degaussing: This quick and efficient destruction method uses a strong magnetic field to erase all data stored on magnetic media, including tapes and hard drives, rendering storage devices unusable.

Phiston manufactures the most secure disintegrators on the market, including:

• MediaDice® Combo Disintegrator
• MediaDice® All Media Disintegrator A2
• MediaDice® All Media Disintegrator A10
• MediaDice® SSD Disintegrator-2C

Efficient Capabilities

In the busy health care environment, time is a crucial commodity. Our automated systems minimize the need for manual intervention, allowing your staff to focus their attention on patient care and administration. High output capabilities can meet the demands of even the largest volume decommissioning projects.
