For many years I have wanted our department to get away from sending out envelopes with patients encrypted health records & Xrays in them to Solicitors, experts etc.
We've now come to a time because of Covid-19, where people don't want to handle envelopes & discs and our NHS Solicitors who we deal with for cases that have gone further, have given us a location on their Sharefile to upload records and it works a treat.
I want to talk to our Manager into getting our own space and then the 100s of patients Solicitors can be given their own link to download data from and telling him that our own NHS Solicitors already use Sharefile may get him on board but he probably won't consider an alternative (if it's good enough for them it's good enough for us).

So is there anybody here who has setup Sharefile for their own company/workplace?
The prices for 5 staff members to use it looks very cheap (around $50/month for 5) or is this the normal price for such a thing?
So just like my own Synology Server do I just send the Solicitors a link to that specific patients folder and nobody else can see it unless they get the link?

Any advice appreciated.
 
I would have thought the NHS Solicitors would have looked into this before being able to use Sharefile!!
Both NHS Secure File Transfer and NHSmail will not handle the amount of data we need to send on one patient eg the other day I sent 360meg of Health Records and over 10gb of X-Rays just for one patient.
We did have a meeting about this nearly two years ago and the Trust had got to get this file transfer in place by July 2019, of course it never happened.
