The Advantages of Microfilm Conversion for Your Business

| | Digital Conversion

Do you still use microfilm or does your office have old microfilm laying around or in large, bulky filing cabinets? Bring efficiency and a lightness to your office with microfilm conversion. At Resource Data Management we specialize in microfilm conversion for Harrisburg and the surrounding areas and we would like to tell you more about its many advantages.

RDM Inc Microfilm and Microfiche Scanning

With the advances in technology, such as TIF or PDF images, microfiche and microfilm have become obsolete. Therefore, it is essential to your business and for all companies and government organizations to invest in microfiche and microfilm conversion. In many instances, old rolls of microfilm are no longer easily accessible and cannot be shared within the organization. In addition, as time passes, the equipment, known as a Microfilm or Microfiche Reader used to search for data on these rolls becomes damaged or unavailable. This makes accessing information on microfilm nearly impossible. Microfilm conversion allows your employees to not only access documents more easily, but in some cases; it allows them to access them for the first time.

In short, when you provide immediate access to information that was once stored on Microfilm or Microfiche, your organization will be better equipped to address the needs of your end-user. Information can be searched and retrieved in seconds, without needing any specialized equipment. Additionally, data is more readily availability to help with audit and compliance requirements, such as the Freedom of Information Act.
Microfilm records also take up a lot of space, whereas digital files do not need separate storage space. Consequently, you can discover more office space that was previously storage for microfilm.

And, it’s actually much easier than you might think! RDM helps clients to convert rolls of Microfilm and Microfiche jackets to images on CD, DVD, or online. We will index the Film or Fiche with keywords or index values, to help users to quickly locate and access the data for which they are looking. As the demand for immediate, shared access to information increases, RDM offers clients an easy method of changing this information to TIF or PDF images.

Ready to get started on the road towards a more efficient and organized running office? At Resource Data Management, it is our goal to help you have the most efficient and effective office possible.

What Should I Do with My Old X-Rays? And Other Frequently Asked Questions

| | X-Ray Recycling

There is a ‘silver’ lining when it comes to old X-rays; you can recycle them! The main component of an X-ray film is PET plastic, and it is coated with silver, a rare earth mineral and the precious metal we are all familiar with. So, throwing away an X-ray means you are putting PET plastic and silver in the trash, which ultimately goes to a landfill. X-ray recycling is the right thing to do for proper disposal. As experts in X-ray recycling for Trenton and the entire Tri-State area, we’ve gotten a few questions about it and how it works. That’s why we’d like to take some time to answer a few of them here. And, if you have any additional questions about X-ray recycling, document storage or any of the other services we provide don’t hesitate to give us a call.

RDM Inc X-Ray Recycling

Q: Why should I recycle my old X-rays?

A: Throwing away an x-ray means you are putting PET plastic and silver in the trash, which ultimately goes to a landfill. Silver can make people sick if it is ingested in large quantities and cause a multitude of health problems and even death. Something that can cause that much harm to humans and animals does not belong in a landfill or an incinerator. X-ray recycling is the right thing to do for proper disposal. By recycling your old X-rays with professionals, you can protect patients’ privacy and the environment by responsibly recycling them.

Q: Why do X-rays contain silver?

A: That gel within the piece of plastic contains silver, which is very sensitive to light. When the X-ray hits the plastic it causes a molecular change in the silver and causes it to create an image. The picture cannot be seen with the naked eye, but it can be seen after a developing process.

Q: What happens to the silver?

A: We recover is for you! With X-ray recycling we offer terminal systems and recirculating silver recovery with state-of-the-art equipment and unique systems to assist our customers in achieving environmental compliance.

Efficiency

Digital records management allows you to save time when searching for documents. Gone are the days of leafing through dozens of cabinet drawers and hundreds of files. When your paper files are converted to a digital format, the information becomes much easier to locate and far more accessible to employees.

Digital documents can also be accessed remotely, allowing your employees to work from anywhere. And, having digital files improves document history, making it easier to trace the origin of digital documents and know when changes were made and who made them.

Space & Savings

Digital records management can save space and money. No need to buy tons of wasteful paper any longer. It also saves on maintaining printers and purchasing spare parts.
And, when you go paperless you can also free up new, previously unavailable space in the office. Properly done records management also allows companies to archive all documents in the cloud or on private company servers.

Security

With digital records management and a paperless system, it is easier to restrict access to confidential documents. It is also easier to make backups. So if files get lost or if any kind of data theft occurs, it is possible to retrieve the information. And, when files are saved digitally, they’re far less susceptible to damage from fires, leaks or general clumsiness.

Plus, records management can help you get organized! You do not have to worry about a file being misfiled or misplaced. All of the information you want and need is at your fingertips.
