Bring valid identification, details of the hospital visit or admission, and any written authorisation or legal documentation needed for the request.
HIM staff will verify your identity, the request and your authority to receive the information before processing or releasing records.
Records may need to be located, checked for completeness, reviewed and prepared for authorised release. Original patient records remain under hospital control.
Health Information staff cannot provide emergency clinical advice. For an urgent medical problem, contact the clinical service or Emergency Room. If an information request is time-sensitive, explain the urgency when submitting it.
