What is your data?  It is your entire practice sitting there on a computer hard disk in a database. 

All your patient records.  All your financial records.  Your diary appointments, your outstanding book debt, your reporting.

COVID accelerated the development of the digital health industry. Advancements in mobile health, telemedicine, telehealth, and remote patient monitoring systems are enabling the decentralisation of health care.

Imagine one morning, you open your computer, and *boom* — all your data is gone. No patient records, no invoices, no history. Sounds like a nightmare, right?

Backing up your data at least once a month is a habit every practice should adopt. Here’s why—and what happens if you don’t.
