Practice software and imaging
Know who supports each system and what happens if the server or a workstation fails.
Backups you’ve restored
Confirm backups include patient records and images, and test a restore.
Network and Wi-Fi coverage
Check every operatory, the lab and the front desk for reliable connections.
Staff accounts and access
Give each person their own login, remove access when someone leaves, and turn on multi-factor authentication where available.
Privacy requirements
Ask a qualified advisor which privacy and security requirements apply to you, then match your IT practices to them. We can help with the technology side.
A plan for downtime
Decide how you’d keep seeing patients if systems were down for a day.
General information, not a substitute for professional advice about your specific situation.
