Physician Document Management

After Hurricane Katrina, MedLicense.com was inundated with licensing request from Physicians fleeing the aftermath of the massive storm. Unfortunately, most lost everything in the flooding. This included their medical school diploma, training certificates, board certification certificates, malpractice documents, birth certificates, passports, state license certificates, and all other pertinent documents required during the credentialing process with Governmental Agencies, Hospitals, and Insurance Companies. This presented unique problems with the licensing process for these Hurricane Katrina victims. The Medical Boards were forced to afford these physicians waivers of their mandated document requirements.

Because of this, MedLicense.com began to offer Document Storage Services. Basically, our clients forward to us a notarized copy of all important documents related to the credentialing process. These include Certificates, Diplomas, ID Documents, Court Papers, Board Actions, Criminal Papers, Divorce Decrees, Name Change Documents, Immigration Papers, and etc. MedLicense.com scans each document for permanent storage. All such documents are stored on a CD, a Storage Device, and off site through a secure 3rd party Storage Firm. The hard copies are kept under lock and key in a Dry Room. In the event that a physician credentials with a agency, government, or hospital, MedLicense.com emails the physician packet to the facility and mails a hard copy.

The service is invaluable to those physician who have gone through a disaster, crisis, divorce, or instance which inhibits their ability to access their important documents.
