Get your medical records from any health system
Federal law gives you the right to a copy of your medical records. Under the HIPAA right of access, a provider must act on your request within 30 days, and can charge you only a reasonable, cost-based fee. Every system routes that right differently: a different portal, a different form, a different fee schedule.
These guides document the actual process for each health system, with the real forms, phone numbers, fees, and turnaround times, verified against the system's own pages.

More systems are on the way. Each page carries a “last verified” date, and the facts are re-checked on a six-month cycle.
