IronbayAsset Recovery

Healthcare & life sciences

Protected health information turns up in places nobody inventories — imaging workstations, lab instruments, copier hard drives. The disposal record is part of your HIPAA obligation.

What is different here

PHI outside the obvious devices

Ultrasound carts, analyzers and multifunction printers all carry storage. We find it, pull it and list it separately on the certificate.

A record for the auditor

The Security Rule requires documented media disposal. A certificate listing every serial, method and date is that documentation.

Clinical schedules

Collections are booked around your floors, not ours — early mornings, weekends, and a single cart at a time where that is what the unit can spare.

Regulations we document against
HIPAA §164.310(d)(2)HITECHCalifornia CMIANIST SP 800-88

Healthcare jobs default to destruction for every data-bearing device unless you instruct otherwise, and we will sign a business associate agreement before the first collection.

Chain of custody

The same six stations, every job.

01

Seal

Every bin, cage or pallet is sealed at your dock with a numbered tag. The seal number goes on the manifest you sign.

02

Transport

Company-owned, GPS-tracked vehicles and our own drivers. No freight brokers on data-bearing loads, ever.

03

Receive

Seals checked against the manifest, then every device scanned under camera: make, model, serial, asset tag.

04

Sanitize

Purge to NIST SP 800-88 and verify, or destroy. Anything that fails verification is destroyed.

05

Remarket

Devices that pass are graded, tested and sold. Proceeds come back to you, itemized by serial.

06

Certify

A certificate listing every serial, the method and the date. Recycling certificates for everything else.
