Medical Records
Medical records are maintained in a secure electronic format and conform to all state and federal regulations for the storage of medical data.
If you are age 18 or over, we cannot give out any verbal, written or copied information without your consent, except in situations maintained by law. This includes your parents, family doctor or professors.
Releasing Records
You must sign an Authorization for Release of Protected Health Information document before our medical staff can release any information, for medical records prior to July 1, 2026. This includes speaking to another person about your treatment or care, i.e., parent(s), professors, etc. Copies of this Release of Protected Health Information document are available at the DeWeese Health Center. You can find an electronic version of this document on the patient portal.
The health center cannot release records that have been sent to us from another facility. The patient must go to that facility directly to obtain those records.
