According to the Patient Bill of Rights, the facility is required to provide you or your patient designee, upon request, access to all information contained in your medical records. You are also entitled to have copies of all of your medical records. While you are entitled to your records, you may not be able to access them on your specific time table. Ask your bedside nurse to help you. If necessary, call for the nursing supervisor or hospital administrator. Some facility charge fees to provide you with your records.
