Medical records are typically stored in Electronic Health Records, like MyChart. Organizations that use Epic MyChart can share electronic health records easily through a process called Care Everywhere. When you start with your new GHC-SCW insurance, our staff will pull in your outside records if we have access. If we don’t have access, follow the steps below to transfer your records.

  3. Mail the completed form to your last health care facility. You can find the directions on where to send the form by contacting them.
