Medical Records In Australia

Recommended Posts

My new Doctor has asked for permission to access my medical records. Has anyone here seen a medical record before? I'm just wondering how detailed thy are and what info they contain. Do thy just contain a list of conditions and treatments or are they detailed enough to contain the clinical notes your doctor writes? Any info would be great!

It depends on your medical history as to how detailed they are and what info they contain. There are no centralized records (yet - there might well be after controversial changes in November), so it depends on what records they want and from where. Any records should contain all the original information including the doctor's notes.
