New York State law requires all healthcare practitioners and facilities to grant patients access to their own medical records (there are a few exceptions). Patients may request information, as may parents or guardians who have authorized their child's care.

If you want to see your medical records, ask your doctor or call the Medical Records Department. New York State law guarantees you the opportunity to inspect your medial records within 10 days of your discharge.

If you want to have a copy of your medical records, you must submit a written request to the hospital. Address the request to:

Flushing Hospital Medical Center
Medical Records Correspondence Department
45TH Avenue at Parsons Boulevard
Flushing, New York 11355
