Submit Records Requests Through our Online Request Tool
We now have a fully online records request tool that ensures security through identity verification, allowing you to submit requests with ease on a computer, tablet or smartphone. Enjoy the convenience of this service at no cost. Click here to request your records online and follow the instructions carefully. This option is particularly helpful for the following individuals to request patient records:
- Patients requesting specific documents of their own records
- Parents of minor patients requesting records
- Caregivers acting on behalf of a patient (i.e. Power of Attorney)
The Online tool verifies your identity by asking for a photo of your driver’s license, which can be taken via webcam or smartphone. There is no additional charge to use this service.
Please note, Chrome, Safari and Firefox are the recommended browsers for this application. If you encounter any issues with your electronic request, please call our Health Information Management (HIM) at:
