Medisoft Backup Routine
Do you use an adequate backup routine? The best description I've ever seen is from a Version 7 Medisoft book. Here's the link to it: Medisoft Backup Routine Version 7 was released about 8 years ago and since that time, I've talked to various computer people and heard this backup routine coined as something like the Royal Backup System or the King's Backup System. If any of you know the exact term, please email it to me.
What makes this system good? Because of the rotations of backup and backup media, there are many backups to rely upon and in a systematic fashion. Here's some ideas for you to implement it:
1) Purchase 21 flash drives and label them with a marker the label from the Medisoft Backup Routine; i.e. Monday, Tuesday, etc. I've seen these flash drives for under $5 when standing at a checkout at Target, Office Max, Best Buy or any outlet that sells computer supplies.
2) Setup Medisoft's Task Manager to create the backups on your local drive in a backup folder. Then, setup an off site storage via the Internet that pulls the backup to an online location. Billing Buddies can help you set this up. The initial setup fee is $100 and then there is a monthly fee of $4.95 for the online storage.
3) Remember, once a month or so, test one or two of your backups. You can do this by creating a second practice in Medisoft called Backup Test and restore your backups.

I do not want to repeat your website, however I really just like the theme. Could you comment on which theme are you using or is this custom designed?
