Request Your Medical Records

Lallie Kemp Medical Center now offers an online records request tool that allows you to securely access your health records. We are dedicated to ensuring the privacy of protected health information, and only allow the following individuals to request patient records:

• Patients requesting their own records
• Parents of minor patients requesting records
• Caregivers acting on behalf of a patient (Ex. Power of Attorney)

Our online tool verifies the requester’s identity by requiring a photo of their driver’s license, which can be taken on a webcam or smartphone. There is no additional charge to use this service. We recommend using Chrome, Safari or Firefox for the best user experience when requesting records through our tool.
