What Are Medical Record Technical Services?

Medical record technical services are the document-processing steps that make raw medical records usable as legal or claims evidence. They include digitizing scanned or faxed records with OCR, redacting protected health information (PHI), enhancing unreadable images, converting files into court- and platform-ready formats, extracting metadata, applying Bates numbers, and adding hyperlinks and bookmarks so a reviewer can move instantly between a summary and its source page. Unlike medical record review, which interprets and summarizes the content, technical services prepare and organize the underlying documents.

LezDo TechMed organizes documented medical information for review by the appropriate qualified legal, medical, insurance, or claims professional. The process is AI-assisted with human-in-the-loop quality review, never fully automated.

Document Redaction

HIPAA-compliant redaction permanently removes protected health information and privileged content from medical records, unlike visual hiding (black boxes over text), redacted data is deleted from the file and cannot be recovered.
