| The Medical Records Office is the first stop during in-processing and is responsible for maintaining, tracking, and safeguarding all records for patients using Dunham as their primary care facility. Personnel assigned to the section ensure that every medical record is maintained in order as prescribed by regulation and is readily available for the health care provider. The medical record is the property of the US Government and must be maintained by the military treatment facility from which you receive your primary care. In 2004 medical facility Commanders were directed to implement changes to ensure the ability to retrieve documentation of care provided to every patient. To comply with this directive, we “closed” the medical record system effective 1 April 2004. Patients are no longer permitted to sign out their personal medical record or the records of any of their family members. All patients may request copies of their records (please allow 14 days to complete), but the original record will remain within the Clinic and will be mailed or express shipped to the next duty station upon receipt of a request from that duty station. Additionally, if there are records located at other facilities, a request to have those records forwarded to Dunham will need to be completed at the Dunham Medical Records Office. |

| We have the capability to fax pertinent information to referring providers and other medical treatment facilities as required. Those requesting to pick up medical information for beneficiaries over the age of 18, married and/or pregnant, or high school graduates will be required to present a completed DD Form 2870, Authorization for Disclosure of Medical or Dental Information, which can be printed from here* or can be obtained at the Medical Records Office or Clinic’s Information Desk. This is to ensure we maintain compliance with the requirements set forth under the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act. |
