Abstract

Hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes are not the only disasters that can disrupt a patient accounts department's operations. Localized fires, power outages, vandalism, and hardware or software failure can pose even greater threats to operations. To minimize downtime and resume normal operations, disaster preparedness strategies should be part of a department's daily procedures.
