HIPAA-compliant recycling of sensitive medical records
Silver x-ray film used in healthcare facilities is classified as a characteristic hazardous waste by the EPA. It requires special care to protect patient confidentiality and recycle properly. Our silver-recovery process complies with HIPAA handling requirements for medical x-ray film and helps hospitals across the country properly recycle expired film archives. And our experience in the silver-recovery process ensures that they receive the highest returns. As part of our x-ray recycling process, customers receive a Certificate of Destruction and Business Associates Agreement (BAA) documentation. NTR Metals maintains requisite insurance protection for sensitive medical x-rays. Learn more.
