When to use this form

Use this form when you change doctors, move to a new clinic, or see a specialist who needs your history, labs, and imaging. It also helps when a caregiver manages a child's or parent's care and needs records sent to multiple providers. Submit it after a hospital stay so your follow-up team sees discharge notes, medications, and restrictions. For context, you may reference details from your Hospital discharge form and your Discharge instructions form. With a clear request, you reduce delays, avoid duplicate tests, and give your next provider the full picture.

Must Ask Transfer of Medical Records Questions

  1. Who should receive your records, and how can we contact them?

    Full name, department, address, phone, and secure fax or email ensure delivery without back-and-forth. Accurate details cut turnaround time and prevent misrouted files.

  2. Which records and date range do you want sent?

    Naming types (visit notes, labs, imaging) and a date span keeps the transfer focused and faster. It also limits sharing to what your new provider truly needs.

  3. Do you authorize release of your information for this purpose?

    An explicit consent with your signature and date is often required before providers send records. If your organization uses a separate authorization, attach the Medical record release form.

  4. How should we deliver the records?

    Your preference (secure portal, health information exchange, encrypted email, fax, or mail) affects speed, cost, and file format. Choosing a secure method protects privacy and avoids rework.

  5. Is there a deadline or upcoming appointment we should prioritize?

    A target date or appointment time helps staff triage urgent requests. It also sets expectations for follow-up if the deadline is at risk.
