Southeastern Medical Oncology Center has trained professionals that manage your patient health information and medical records. They are committed to the timely and accurate collection of health information and its storage, retention, and disclosure. Our team of professionals ensures that your information is kept private, secure, and is in accordance with federal and state regulations.
To obtain your health information/medical records, you can visit any of our offices during normal business hours. Come to the office with identification and sign a HIPAA-compliant authorization form. We will be happy to mail you a HIPAA-compliant authorization form for you to sign in front of a notary if you need one. If it is not practical for you to come to the office, you can simply go to our forms page on this site and download the “Authorization for Use and Disclosure of Protected Health Information,” or you may write a letter authorizing SMOC to release a copy of your medical record. Both the authorization form/letter must have the necessary information including your name, date of birth, social security number, date of service, name of hospital where services were performed, the person/organization to receive the information, along with the address where the information is to be sent. The authorization form/letter must be signed and dated by the patient or the patient’s guardian/legal representative.
Here at SMOC, we make it convenient to you by accepting most major insurance plans. Please contact us at any of our locations to see if your insurance will be accepted.
