Lloyd George patient record digitisation service
Their bulk digitisation service includes the onsite packing of your records into boxes, secure transportation and digitisation at our accredited scanning centres, approved by NHS England.
Once completed records are uploaded into the National Document Repository (NDR) for GP patient records. Secure, confidential destruction is also included.
For GP practices who have previously digitised their records, their Milkround service is ideal for a mop up of additional LG records accumulating onsite in your practice.
To get the best deals possible, do not forget to always let our suppliers know that you are a member of the Londonwide LMCs Buying Group, whether ordering by phone or by email. And check our supplier pages for specific codes and deals.
