How do I get a copy of my bill and medical record?

You may stop by the billing office with proof of identity. Only the patient may obtain a copy of his/ her records, or in case of a minor, the parent may receive this information.
You may have your attorney send the necessary request and it will be mailed to him. We do not fax medical records.

What if my account is in litigation?

You are responsible for advising us that this account is being handled by your attorney and giving us his name, address and telephone number. You must also sign a medical lien which states your attorney may withhold our payment from your proceeds at the time of settlement. This will prevent collection action being taken against you.
