"Records and Information Management (RIM) is defined as the systematic control of records throughout their lifecycle. Jayhawk File Express can help you manage your information -- paper or electronic."

We understand that records management may not be the first thing that you think about every day, but it is always the first thing that we think about, which is why we've been trusted by hundreds of companies to address their document management needs.

Meet the Staff

Anne Alvarez

 
 
Anne Alvarez PictureAnne Alvarez had no idea what a records management company was when she started at Jayhawk File Express two years ago. "I was just desperate for a full time job," Anne admitted.

 

She jumped right in, however, and started learning all the various tasks of the service bureau (imaging department). For the past year, Anne has been the main scanner operator, working to get the best quality at the fastest possible speed for Jayhawk File Express clients.

Photography is a personal passion of Anne's since she was in high school where she first learned to take pictures on the yearbook committee.  She continues to shoot anything that catches her fancy which usually includes landscapes, nature and interesting architecture.  Of course, she is also the designated family photographer and ends up making digital scrapbooks for everyone as well.

Anne is married to Al, the tall, dark and handsome love of her life. She has two grown children; a son age 21 and a daughter age 23 plus two step daughters, ages 8 and 4.  

 New Telephone System

Stay in Touch ...telephone

 

We out-grew our telephone system!

 

In order to improve communication with our customers, friends and vendors, we are having a technologically advanced digital/telephone system installed in late January / early February. Our sales, customer service, and management teams will have direct dial office numbers, making it easier for you to reach them. Once the system is installed, we will list the direct dial numbers on our website.

Medical IT Update

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) have announced the availability of registration for the Medicare and Medicaid electronic health record (EHR) incentive programs. CMS and ONC encouraged broad participation and outlined online and in-person resources that are in place to assist eligible professionals and eligible hospitals who wish to participate. 

 

Beginning January 3, 2011, registration will be available for eligible health care professionals and eligible hospitals who wish to participate in the Medicare EHR incentive program.  Most states likely will launch their Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs during the spring and summer of 2011.

Legislative Update

Risky Business


emailUsing e-mail for attorney/client communication can be tricky, as shown in a Superior Court of Massachusetts decision issued October 2010. The defendant's attorney used e-mail to communicate with opposing counsel and blind copied his client with the "bcc" function.

 

Problems ensued when the client responded to the e-mail with a "reply all" - which had the effect of sending his response to the opposing counsel, as well as his own attorney.

 

Quoting from the opinion: "On balance, and perhaps with some indulgence for human fallibility, the Court finds that the defendant met his burden of showing that he took reasonable (although not maximum) steps to preserve the confidentiality of the particular communication in issue. The Court allowed the motion to strike, and will preclude further use of the e-mail. The defendant and his counsel should not expect similar indulgence again."

 

Records management includes e-mail and other Internet generated information. Contact Betty Barker with questions about Web File Express or other electronic records management.

Looking Ahead to a New Year  

What an exciting time of the year! Jayhawk File Express is looking forward to great things in 2011. What are your plans? How can we make your plans become a reality?

If they include a greater focus on compliance, we can help. If they include making your records management more efficient and cost effective, we can help. If they include a greater focus on "green" issues, we can help.

We would love to sit down and discuss ways we can work together this year to turn plans into actions.

Sincerely,


Pete sig
