Patient records contain vital information on your health. However, these records can contain errors and inaccuracies or become obsolete before your next exam.
How can you ensure that your records are fully up to date and accurate? Ask yourself these questions to get started:
Contact the provider to discuss the issue. When fixing mistakes and other problems, the medical provider will make a note of the error in your records. This will also alert other doctors and healthcare professionals down the line, so they won’tmake recommendations based on inaccurate information.
DrOwl lets patients view and access their medical records from a mobile device. You can also use our app to share records with others, such as caregivers.
However, DrOwl goes one step further by explaining patient records in clear, easy to understand language. Medical records are created by health professionals for other health professionals, so the data can be confusing. Our app translates medical terminology, acronyms, and complex test results in a way that most patients can understand. Visit the website to learn more.
