We just last week trashed all of our paper folders. Not that many, maybe 900 or so. We are lucky because 99% of everything which comes in is digital from fax to PC. That's records, labs, x-rays, H & Ps, Discharge summaries, etc. Every so often a patient will hand us something or we have the release and HIPAA forms, etc., and they are scanned in immediately. Some other forms like WIC forms or PAs, etc. are scanned after they are faxed so we have a record either way -- fax from desktop leaves a log and physically faxing leaves a log.
We fax out records and forms directly from the PC so we almost never use our own paper. And, we never, ever import to AC and never will.
Of course we use our own software for all this, but I am fairly tired of talking about and trying to give it away, so I won't. <G>
