IT Equipment Disposal

Secure, HIPAA-Compliant IT Disposal for Healthcare Practices

Retiring old computers, servers, or medical devices? HAN connects practices with certified IT disposal partners who ensure complete data destruction and compliant recycling — protecting your patients and your practice.

Why Proper IT Disposal Matters in Healthcare

Healthcare organizations face unique risks when retiring IT equipment. Hard drives, servers, and networked devices may contain protected health information (PHI) — and improper disposal can trigger HIPAA breach notifications, OCR investigations, and significant fines. HAN helps practices navigate this process with confidence.

What We Handle

Certified Data Destruction

All storage media is wiped using NIST 800-88 compliant methods or physically destroyed. You receive a certificate of destruction for your compliance records.

Hardware Recycling

Equipment is recycled through R2- and e-Stewards-certified facilities, keeping hazardous materials out of landfills and meeting environmental compliance requirements.

Chain-of-Custody Documentation

Full documentation from pickup to final disposition — giving you an auditable record for HIPAA compliance, OCR inquiries, or internal audits.

Pickup & Logistics

Scheduled on-site pickup for practices of any size. No need to transport equipment yourself — our partners handle secure transport from your facility.

All Device Types Accepted

Computers, laptops, servers, tablets, printers, copiers, networking equipment, and medical devices with embedded storage — all handled securely.

Asset Value Recovery

Eligible equipment may qualify for asset value recovery, offsetting disposal costs. We assess your inventory and identify resale or refurbishment opportunities.
