About this service
Your medical records are a confidential record that is created when you visit any UPHC medical services provider, or Health Promotion and Prevention Services staff member for an individual consultation. If you visit the Counseling Services, you will also have a medical record on file in that location.
No one is authorized to see your medical record without your written authorization if you are over 18 years of age, according to the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA). Exceptions to this include: medical emergencies, utilization review, quality assurance activities, court order or subpoena, and licensing and accreditation of the facility. For more information see California Civil Code 56.10.
