Medical Records Services
Medical Records Services maintains all records of patients seen in the Student Health Center. Records are retained for 7 years after the last patient visit or 8 years after a patient reaches the age of 18, whichever is later.
With proper patient authorization, the patient may obtain a copy of his/her medical and/or immunization records for a nominal fee. Requests for information are completed upon receipt within 7-10 working days.
Because your medical information is confidential and requires high levels of security, an authorization form with your signature on it must be completed prior to processing. There may be charges associated with your request and payment must be made prior to your records release. Our cashier is located on the 1st floor of the Wilce Student Health Center. We accept cash, checks, VISA, MasterCard, Discover and Buck ID. Please make checks payable to The Ohio State University. Please see below for charges that may apply.
