Patient Resources

Medical Records

The Patient Administration Department is committed to supporting our patients, clinical staff, and employees. Our mission is to help our staff and beneficiaries with anything related to medical records, following regulations and policies. Medical records belong to the U.S. government, and it is our duty to protect them from being lost, changed, or shared without proper permission.
