TRANSFERRING RECORDS TO ANOTHER PRACTICE

 

If you wish to have a copy or summary of your medical records transferred to another practice, your signed consent requesting such transfer must be received from another medical practitioner. For the transfer of an entire family’s records, signed consent must be obtained by each member over 16 years of age, in order to comply with privacy policy. Depending on the size and complexity of your file, a fee may be charged to you for copying, collating and sending the record on your behalf. Please note that your original record will be retained at Fraser Coast Medical Centre as required by law.
