Best Practices for Backup

Data backups are the responsibility of your office. Loss of data and recovery may be difficult and costly. The best method to protect your office’s data, patient’s data and preserve your paperless environment is to maintain a proper backup routine. Understanding the process is crucial to a successful backup.

Although 1st Providers Choice customer support initially sets up the scheduled backup of files onto your local server or external device, 1st Providers Choice is not responsible for maintenance or management of the backup process. Assigning or contracting a network professional is strongly recommended to handle backup procedures. Please have a qualified IT technician contact our customer support for any questions regarding the files required for backup. Once again, we STRONGLY encourage proper and professional maintenance of the data backups.
