If you would like to have copies of your previous medical records sent to GHC-SCW, please take the following steps:
- Download and print the Authorization to Release Medical Information to GHC-SCW
- Complete the patient’s name, SS#, daytime phone #, and date of birth.
- Complete the name and address of the person/facility that the records are to be obtained from.
- Identify the appropriate dates of service for the records that are to be released.
- Check the appropriate information that is to be released (copied and/or faxed).
- Review your rights for this authorization.
- Review the expiration date of the authorization. If you would like a different expiration date, please indicate.
- Obtain the patient or legal representative’s signature (relationship) and date.
- If this request relates to AIDS/HIV, Mental Health Care, Alcohol/Drug Use, or Development Disabilities, please sign and date under the specified section.
- Mail the completed request to your previous health care facility. You may need to contact your previous clinic for information on where to mail or fax the completed form.
