How to submit a request for medical records for FMC and VVMC

Northern Arizona Healthcare is committed to protecting your medical information. For information about your rights and obligations regarding the use and disclosure of your medical information, please see our Notice of Privacy Practices.

Please follow the instructions below to request medical records for yourself or someone else. To request these records electronically, you must have a valid email address and a government-issued ID.


How to submit

Medical record requests require a signed “Authorization to Disclose Protected Health Information” form and a photo ID. This enables us to validate that the request is authentic. On this form, be sure to list the appropriate service dates and check all the specific records you require.

If your records include information about AIDS/HIV, psychiatric care or alcohol/drug abuse care, you must specifically indicate you are authorizing these records to be released by noting this in the “authorization to disclose information” section of the form.

Note that requests to send information to another health care provider are our top priority. Please allow two to three weeks for routine requests to be processed.

“Authorization to Disclose Protected Health Information” forms can be faxed, mailed or brought to the Health Information Management departments at any of the NAH facilities listed below.
