I know what you mean about them pestering you to locae missing files and the like. It seems to me like their storage problem should be their responsibility and not yours. Perhaps they need an office coordinator, someone more organized, who would keep track of these things. I wish you luck. Beyond moving on, unless they decide to become more organized, I don't see much hope for your end getting any better.

Storage
I had similar problem -- I went to Staples and bought an external hard drive with USB port and simply plugged into my computer - my computer just sees it as another drive. Cost about $60 to $80. I've been storing all my voice files on it. Safer than FTP and more convenient for me to look up.
storage vs memory
I think you have a basic lack of understanding of the difference between these two. Storing information won't slow down your computer unless you are constantly accessing it & your disk is really fragmented, & even then the difference might not be noticeable. Speed has to do with memory & processor speed, & photos or files stored on your computer don't have anything to do with this. Otherwise why would hard drives be equipped to handle 250, 500, 1000 GB (or more) of information? Processor speeds and amount of RAM have not increased proportionately. It's the RAM & processor speed you should be thinking about, not how many photos or videos you have. Memory is easy to add. Go to crucial.com.
EHR is the digital storage of
In theory, it would allow any physician at any facility to have immediate access to a patient's entire medical record. In practice, not so much, at least so far.
I use a plastic storage bin and cut a section out for him to ...sm
get in and out. I do not use the lid. It has nice, high sides, room to turn around and I usually try to keep 3 inches of liter in it.
I have 2 other 'regular' size cats who use the standard liter boxes just fine but my big guy only uses his big, roomy custom box. I also replace it about every 5-6 months. I wish you and your kitty all the best!
Please let us know what the vet says.
HIPAA and storage of files
I have a client that has requested I store all their audio files and documents on my FTP indefinitely. They send a lot of work and after only a month, my FTP is starting to act up. It was never intended to be used as permanent storage. Also, I was under the impression that as an IC transcriptionist, I cannot legally store these files for any longer than about a month or two. I routinely clean out my computer whenever I receive payment.
Am I right about this? I had a HIPAA compliance book which I cannot find for the life of me right now. I would also like to offer them some suggestions for secure online storage if anybody has any.
Thanks as always guys. :)
I have 4 of those machines sitting in my storage....sm
I'm sure I have that info. I will check tonight when through working and will email you.
This is free SOFTWARE, not STORAGE.
There is a difference.
Yep, it was me. Storage tubs are great for so many things!!!
Glad to hear another big boy is happy!
need online file storage location
We transfer our files back and forth via email and very frequently the clinic is "missing completed" files which we have sent them. This is beginning to take up way too much time to look up and resend.
I need an online storage site where us transcriptionists (3) can send a copy of finished work and also the clinic receptionsist can also access to look for "missing files." (Preferably free or low priced) Any ideas?? Thanks. Free
I just pulled mine back out of storage - LOVE THEM!! nm

I use Gmail, which has a huge storage capacity and search function (sm)
Which is why I like it. I don't have the emails stored on my computer, just on my Gmail. Free and I haven't even scratched the surface of my storage space yet. Of course the actual files are saved on my work computer. I have a monster of a work computer, so storage would not be an issue. I have two other computers for family use. Nobody else in this house even BREATHES near my work computer. Ha ha!
Nothing is ever sent just in an email. I zip everything up using WinZip, with password, and then attach it... For HIPPA compliance.
I do send one email a day unless I am asked to do STAT work and get it back right away, in which case separate emails are used.
