Medical Records
You are entitled to request copies of your medical records. There is a fee for copying the charts and it may take up to a week to ten days. The copying fee is $5.00 plus $1.00 per sheet for the first 25 sheets, and $.50 for every sheet over 25. We are not staffed for on-demand copying and use a weekly service. Any electronic notes can be printed off or provided on CD. Or, some information can be downloaded onto your Patient Portal. Federal law requires a signed release before we can begin the process and a link to that form is below.
We use Acton Corp to provide records and once you have initiated the request with us, you may call them at (205) 408-6030 to check on the status of your request.
Forms requiring completion by the practice or needing a doctor’s signature should be brought in during a scheduled visit. If that is not possible, bring them to our receptionists who can explain the process for completing them.
