Asheville Document Scanning Questions
What Asheville office managers and IT staff ask before handing over important documents, from how boxes are collected to which Buncombe County towns we cover, what scanning costs, and what we scan.
Buncombe County records reach our scanning floor two ways — a scheduled box pickup under documented chain of custody, or tracked shipping if you would rather send them yourself. Files that are too sensitive to leave the building can be scanned on-site instead, which is the usual answer for active patient charts and open case files. You are also welcome to drop boxes at our Matthews location during business hours.
Our document scanning stays with our own staff at an access-controlled facility under video surveillance rather than a subcontractor. Scanned documents come back as searchable PDF or TIF with OCR applied and index data in Excel, file formats that open with free tools and need no viewer software installed. Originals are shredded under our NAID AAA certification or returned, whichever your retention policy requires. Call (828) 900-1470 to set up a pickup.
All of Buncombe County — Asheville itself plus Arden, Fletcher, Black Mountain, Weaverville, Woodfin, Biltmore Forest, Candler and Swannanoa — along with the wider Western North Carolina market. That takes in Hendersonville and Fairview to the south, Waynesville and Canton in Haywood County, Brevard in Transylvania County, and Mars Hill and Marshall in Madison County.
Coverage here is not a route boundary the way our shredding service is, because boxes travel. An Asheville law firm and a Madison County clinic are quoted the same way and scanned by the same staff on the same equipment, so the town you are in changes neither the price nor the care your important documents get. If yours is not named above, call and ask.
Document scanning is quoted per page, with the rate falling as volume rises, and one number covers prep, scanning, indexing and secure destruction of the originals rather than a stack of line items. Pulling staples, paper clips and binder clips is part of prep and is not billed separately.
Because we do not sell viewer software, there are no license fees, no installation charges and no IT time to budget for. What moves the number is page count, how much indexing you want, and whether anything needs special handling. There is no long-term contract, so you can scan one file room and stop. Call for a free assessment and a flat, all-in quote.
Most of what our document scanning covers for Asheville offices is ordinary business paper — accounts payable and receivable batches, personnel files full of personal documents, contracts, and the file room nobody has opened since the last audit. Patient charts are converted to e-charts for EMR and EHR systems under HIPAA compliant handling, legal case files are scanned and indexed by matter, and we do not sell imaging software, so the output drops into whatever system you already run.
Awkward formats are handled on the same job — blueprints and engineering drawings, bound books and newsprint, microfilm, microfiche and aperture cards, and photo scanning for the prints and slides in the same room. High-volume scanners with double-feed detection make sure nothing is skipped, and scanned documents are indexed the way your staff actually searches for a file. Once the scans pass quality assurance, the paper can be securely shredded.
