How do I backup my FastEMC data files?

There are several ways to backup your FastEMC data files including all of your claims and patient data.

For a one-time backup you can simply copy the c:\win_ansi folder (or your FastEMC folder if installed in a different location or on a network, check your icon path if you are not sure). Copy the entire folder and all subdirectories to the backup drive or to a CD.

New menu option on the 5 - FastEMC Utilties > M - FastEMC Backup Menu - This is designed to be a simple backup to a device or folder.  We suggest the inexpensive Thumb Drives make an excellent backup media.  Rotate between a few different devices and keep one off site.  Remember this backup has PATIENT Information and must be secured.
