Cardiovascular Center of Lompoc: Patient Records Available 24/7

The Cardiovascular Center of Lompoc (CCL) provides patients with non-invasive diagnostic studies of the heart, venous and arterial systems. Patients are referred to the Center by local doctors.

As a growing practice treating more and more patients every year, CCL spent a lot of time and money filing and storing patient records. Each new patient meant more records to process, track and store. “It’s tedious work to file and organize these records and it never ends. There are always new patient records coming in,“ says Karen Munoz, the employee who handles billing for the center out of her home office.

Not only are patient records difficult to manage due to their large sizes, but because CCL is required to keep these records on file for seven years they were forced to keep the overflow in an offsite storage facility.
