It is often the case that more than one copy of medical records is required. Using our state-of-the-art digital photocopiers, we can ensure that crisp, clear copies of all of your records are produced and collated professionally into lever arches with customised section dividers.

Scanning Services

MCB also offers a sophisticated scanning service to its clients. Records can be scanned into a variety of formats, but are most commonly done as PDFs and TIFFs.  Scanning the records using a high-end OCR capability enables the digitally converted PDF files to be highly searchable and annotatable.

The scanning of documents is not limited to medical records, nor solely the work that MCB has prepared for you. Any paper document can be scanned and prepared for you.
