Patient Access to Health Information

"As a patient at Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare, you have the right, consistent with laws and regulations, to see and receive a copy of health information about yourself."

Accessing Your Medical Records

Appointment to View Your Medical Records:

An appointment to view your medical records can be arranged by calling the Release of Information Area. Appointments are scheduled during regular business hours as soon as possible but may be delayed if your record is not available.

Requesting Copies of Information:
An AUTHORIZATION TO VIEW/DISCLOSE HEALTH INFORMATION must be filled out and sent to Release of Information before we can copy your records.

Once the authorization is filled out, you can send it to Release of Information by:

  • Drop off: Authorizations are accepted during regular business hours. Please bring a photo id when dropping off authorizations.
  • Mail: Authorizations may also be mailed to the addresses listed below. Please include a copy of a photo id or include a notarized signature.
    *We are unable to accept authorizations via e-mail due to state and federal laws.

Requests are usually completed within one week but may be delayed if your record is not available. Requests may be completed in less than one week if the request is for a medical need.

A fee of $0.31 per page is charged to patients to cover the costs of copying. As a courtesy to our patients, records are copied free of charge if records are delivered directly to a physician for the purpose of continued care. Additional fees may apply if records are delivered to someone other than the patient or a physician.

Upon payment, copies of medical records will be mailed or may be picked up during regular business hours. A photo id is required when picking up copies of medical records.
