Private practitioners like Aamir Zuberi, MD often use digital methods when creating and storing patient information. These digital records can be accessed via a patient portal, or they can be transferred digitally via email. In both cases, you’ll need to provide information to the practitioner to secure access to your health record (such as verifying your identity).
Once you’ve made your request, the hospital or clinic must respond in a certain period of time according to state and federal laws. While timelines will vary, most people must receive their health information in 60 days or less.
Research shows that patients who take the time to review their medical records typically enjoy better outcomes because they’re more involved in their healthcare.
