File transfers

One of the important things about getting a treatment referral is that the patient can provide as much information about her/his medical condition. While letters and other written documents can of course be scanned and sent by email, this is not feasible for big files like y-ray pictures, CT- or MRI scans.
In times of cloud computing, it is a good alternative to get some free cloud storage, like Goggle-Drive to store medical records. These can then be shared by emailing the links only.
German Hospital Service is using multiple cloud storage providers. To facilitate data management by accessing all these accounts and shifting files between them, we have decided to use a specific tool which we find very useful:
MultCloud(https://www.multcloud.com/), a FREE and easy-to-use web app, supports for Managing Files and Transferring Files across Cloud Drives. Free provide 10TB traffic for data transmission.
