Healthcare providers are required by law to provide patients with access to their medical records and the ability to request changes under the Health Insurance Portability and Security Act (HIPAA). One of the most convenient ways for individuals to manage their health information and care is through the MyWellSpan portal, which can be accessed from a computer, tablet, or smartphone at any time.
Through the MyWellSpan portal, patients can easily request their medical records by logging into their account and navigating to the Sharing section. If they are unable to use the online portal, they can also fill out a paper form called the Authorization to Use or Disclose Health Information, available in multiple languages.
In addition to requesting medical records, patients can also make changes to their medical record using the MyWellSpan portal’s Request for Amendment Form. If they prefer not to use the online portal, they can fill out a Patient Requested Amendment Form and mail it to WellSpan Health.
There may be specific situations where additional forms are needed, such as requesting medical records for a deceased loved one or making other types of requests under the 21st Century Cures Act. These forms should be completed accordingly based on their intended use.
