I have had similar problems with card corruption in a digital camera and frequent reformatting seems to have fixed that problem. Considering the medical nature of the data being stored, pull each card aside once a week and format it to be safe. You might also consider tracking corruption for each card so you can tell if it's one or two cards that are the problem, or the whole batch.
