5 important reasons to keep a copy of your medical record:

 

• You’ll avoid duplicate medical tests
• You can track the history of past illnesses, medications, vaccinations, procedures and exams
• You can share your medical history when you travel
• You’ll ensure that you have a copy long before the information is destroyed or shredded
• You have a legal right to a copy of your medical record (in most cases)

 

 

RSRS supports patient proactivity.

 

For all the reasons listed above and many others, RSRS encourages you to keep a copy of your personal medical record(s).
