Reason #1: Traveling with Your Medical Record

You don’t have to be on a cruise in the Arctic or on a beach in the Caribbean to be at a distance from your primary physician.  While there is a growing adoption of electronic medical records among healthcare providers, making a patient’s medical record available at the place and time it is most needed is another matter – and the healthcare industry is not there yet.  By being proactive and prepared, you can ensure that medical professionals everywhere have the information they need about you anytime anywhere.  RSRS prepares your records in a standardized searchable PDF format for universal compatibility.

Why do Doctors Rely on RSRS?

When the rules regarding doctors’ responsibility to store and manage medical records changed in 1997, a Canadian physician, Dr. Eric Silver and his partner, Elan Eisen, started RSRS to help doctors comply with the new regulations.  For nearly twenty years, RSRS has provided over 1,000 Canadian physicians with compliant, secure and reliable storage for both paper and electronic medical records.
