What are medical records?
Medical records are a complete record of your medical history. This includes everything from your demographics and vitals, to past diagnoses, treatment plans, immunizations, and more. It also includes medications you have been on, allergies, and diagnostic test results. These charts are designed to serve as a guide for those providing you medical care and also include medical notes made by your doctor or other members of your health care team.
Why might I need copies of my medical records?
There are many reasons that you might need copies of your medical records because these are important records. First, if you are seeing a new physician for any reason, they will request copies of your past medical records so they can provide informed care. In addition, if your physician is moving or closing their practice to retire, you will also want to get copies of your medical records. Those seeking the advice of a specialist will also likely need copies of their medical records, as will anyone trying to compile a comprehensive family medical history.
How do I obtain copies of my medical records?
In theory, obtaining copies of your medical records is easy. You simply submit a request in writing to your physician or the facility housing your medical records, wait a few days for the copies to be made, and then pick them up.
