HIPAA requires providers to make reasonable efforts to make sure X-ray films are destroyed and disposed of properly. The rules don't name a specific method or disposal company – that choice is yours.
How to choose an X-ray recycler in Chicago
- Ask for references from recent customers.
- Call them and confirm the recycler did the job properly.
- Check they received a certificate of destruction.
- Confirm they were paid as agreed.
