[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never heard of anyone using zip drives in this day and age. It takes significantly longer to trasnfer data on a zip than on a usb. Perhaps you should switch systems, but more importantly, the two offices should talk to each other to transfer data electronically without physical go-betweens.

If you mean that the new practice has difficult opening and uploading the files from the floppy disc, and you are the only source of the data, then should transfer everything at home to a usb and give her the usb, unless you can upload everything yourself from home onto their medical portal.

OP here. I always thought everything could be electronic. I was surprised the pediatric practice had to fax their part even though they are associated with the same hospital. The first pediatric doctor did not use any electronic records at all-old school. That is where the bulk of the records on the zip drive came from. If we had his office do it, it would be faxing countless papers. The other opinions are just reports.[/quote]

But now you have electronic data, since it's on the floppy disc you own, right? You can upload to your computer and send the records electronically from your computer, perhaps? Or download to a usb and give the person your usb?

it's not on a floppy disk. it's a zip file we sent. I sent it electronically.[/quote]

Oooh. OK, please don't confuse the two terms, they mean very different things. You're fine, she's out of line. :-)

She didn't. You did. Weirdo.[/quote]
