Please Note

  • If your physician is a Valley physician, there is no need to request records, as they have direct access to your records.
  • Copies of your records may be assessed a fee based on a fee schedule, unless the information is to be sent directly to a physician for continuum of care.
  • Copies of medical records and CDs of diagnostic images (for certain studies) can be picked up by another person that is not the requestor if this is indicated on the request form. A valid driver's license, county I.D., or passport is required to release protected health information to the requestor or designee.
  • Diagnostic images cannot be faxed because of the format they are in. They require a special program to view them.
  • Copies of medical records are provided after a patient's hospital discharge, not during their stay. 

The Health Information Management Department is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
