Request your medical records from a different IU Health location
At Indiana University Health White Memorial Hospital, medical records are maintained for a period of time specified by state and federal regulations.
A patient or legal guardian of a patient may request copies of his/her medical records Monday – Friday, 7 am – 4 pm. Proper authorization for the release of medical records is required.
The Medical Records department is responsible for ensuring record completeness, accurate coding for billing purposes, transcription of reports reflecting services rendered to the patient and maintaining the highest level of patient confidentiality related to health information.
RELEASE OF MEDICAL RECORDS
In order to release medical records, a form is completed and signed by the patient or authorized representative. A form needs to be completed when a patient desires information from their medical record released to another party, i.e. an attorney, physician, insurance company. In addition, it also needs to be completed and signed when a patient wishes to receive copies of their own medical record information. It is important that the form be filled out in its entirety and signed and dated by the patient.
