Medical Records Management


Health Information Management Service
Here, this service provides a secure, efficient and accurate establishment, analysis, maintenance, distribution, retrieval, and archival of Outpatient and Inpatient medical records.

Medical record requests are handled for health care information or medical records from other Military Medical Treatment Facilities (MTF), health care institutions, beneficiaries or their lawful representatives.

As an accredited medical institution, WRNMMC abides by standards and policies that ensure the privacy and confidentiality of your treatment information.

Your medical record is used to...
  • Evaluate and treat your condition.
  • Plan your care.
  • Document your diagnosis, treatment, and change in condition.
  • Keep information current.
  • Communicate between all of your health care professionals.
  • Assist in protecting your legal interests and those of WRNMMC, your providers, the U.S. Navy and the U.S. government.
  • Justify costs incurred by third party payers.
  • To accurately communicate between your health care providers and other patient services such as utilization management, risk management, quality assurance, medical records personnel and outside agencies.

For these reasons, it is vital for your record to "live" at WRNMMC as long as you receive care here.
