X-Ray Film Recycling
X-ray film recycling allows hospitals and healthcare systems to securely dispose of radiographic film that has passed its legal retention period while recovering the intrinsic silver value embedded in the film. Traditional X-ray film contains recoverable silver, a traded commodity whose market value has risen sharply in recent years, making responsible film destruction both an environmental and financial opportunity. By recycling X-ray film through a secure, HIPAA-compliant process, hospitals can reduce long-term storage costs, eliminate compliance and liability risks, and convert dormant film archives into a meaningful cash payout—without allocating internal staff or capital resources.

How It Works
Document Archive Partners (DAP) is a healthcare-focused consulting and services firm that helps hospitals reduce document storage costs, mitigate compliance risk, and unlock hidden value from legacy records. DAP specializes in managing end-to-end X-ray film recycling and silver reclamation projects, coordinating everything from vendor outreach and logistics to secure destruction and final payout reconciliation. The process requires no internal lift from hospital staff and is handled in full compliance with retention policies and HIPAA requirements. By acting as the single point of coordination, DAP enables healthcare organizations to safely retire outdated film archives while converting a long-standing storage liability into measurable financial return.
Reduce Risk While Getting Paid
Storing X-ray film beyond its required retention period creates unnecessary compliance exposure and long-term liability for healthcare organizations. By securely destroying film that is no longer legally required, hospitals can reduce the risk associated with outdated patient records while simultaneously recovering the underlying silver value. X-ray film recycling through a HIPAA-compliant process ensures sensitive information is fully destroyed, certificates of destruction are issued, and storage costs are permanently eliminated—allowing organizations to convert a risk liability into a verified cash payout.

Your X-Ray Film May Be Worth More Than You Think
Many hospitals are sitting on thousands of linear feet of X-ray film that have already met retention requirements—often without realizing they have real monetary value. Because radiographic film contains recoverable silver, the amount your organization can receive depends on both the volume of film stored and current silver market conditions. With silver prices at historic highs, film that once represented a storage cost may now represent a meaningful cash opportunity.
