Frequently Asked Questions
What is data archiving for healthcare and pharmacies?
Data archiving moves records, documents and images out of a legacy system and into a secure, searchable archive. You keep access to the history you are required to retain without running the old software. InfoWerks builds these archives for pharmacies and healthcare organizations.
Why archive data instead of keeping the old system running?
Old systems cost money in licenses, hardware and staff time, and they get harder to secure as they age. An archive keeps the records you need at lower cost and lower risk. It also gives you one place to search instead of several outdated ones.
How long do pharmacies need to keep records?
It depends on the type of record and your state. Federal DEA rules require controlled substance records to be kept for at least two years, and many state boards of pharmacy require longer. Check with your state board of pharmacy and your attorney before deleting anything.
Can archived records still be searched?
Yes. The point of an archive is to find a record quickly when a patient, auditor or attorney asks for it. InfoWerks archives are built around easy search, so staff can look up patient, prescription and document history without the original system.
When should a pharmacy archive its data?
The most common triggers are switching pharmacy systems, selling or buying a pharmacy, closing a location, or a software reseller ending a product. Planning the archive before the old system is turned off avoids lost records and rushed decisions.
