Easily Get Your Grady Medical Records With DoNotPay

Grady Memorial Hospital is based in Chickasha, Oklahoma. It is a member of the Five Oaks Medical Group, and it operates under the Grady Memorial Hospital Authority, which is a member of Vizient, Inc.

You may want your records for many reasons. Because personal medical records have to be kept confidential, under HIPAA Regulations, Grady Hospital cannot release them without your proper authorization. That is why you have to fill in their forms, prove you are who you say you are and submit the form correctly. Then the hospital can process your request.

You can get your medical records from Grady Memorial Hospital in different ways. You can go directly to Grady Memorial Hospital Medical Records, get them online, or request them by mail. The easiest way, though, is to have DoNotPay get them for you.

Getting Your Grady Memorial Hospital Medical Records

To request your Grady Memorial Hospital medical records, you must complete the Medical Records Release Authorization Form. The form is available in English and Spanish.

Because of HIPAA rules and regulations which protect the confidentiality of these records, you must make sure you complete every detail accurately, and, when you submit or hand in the request, you must prove who you are and that you have the necessary authority. To do this, you must:

1. Complete the request form completely and accurately.
2. Include a copy of a government-issued photo ID. This would be, for example, a driver's license, state issued ID, military ID, employment ID, and a valid and current passport.

If you want someone else's medical records, you must provide a document that gives you the authority to collect them. This may be, depending on who the other person is:

1. The child's birth certificate, if they are 17 or younger, shows you are the parent
2. Your document of guardianship
3. A letter from the patient authorizing you to have the records
4. A court order
5. Power of Attorney
6. The executor of the person's estate
7. A death certificate
8. A next-of-kin affidavit

To help you complete the medical records release form to make sure it is processed by the hospital, you must enter:

• The patient's name and any previous name the hospital may have on record

Make sure you read and understand the expiration of and right-to-revoke authorization statements. Read and check, if appropriate, the boxes at the bottom of the form. After everything is complete, prepare to submit it.
