- Anticipate platform constraints: Epic and Cerner support imaging up to 5 GB per study; HIPAA-compliant secure messaging accepts attachments up to 50 MB; Doxy.me video sessions to 4 hours.
- Respect deadlines: HIPAA breach notification within 60 days; medical record retention 7-10 years for adults (varies by state), longer for minors; CMS billing claims within 12 months of service.
- Keep the original before editing (useful during AMA review)
- Prefer PDF/A format for long-term archival in records management systems
