How to Obtain Copies of Your Medical Record

Our medical records department, called Health Information Services, complies with MEEI hospital policy that the request must be received in writing, with your signature, before we can release the information to you or to your new physician. Please print and complete the Patient Authorization Form and either fax or send to:


Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary
243 Charles Street
Boston, MA 02114
Attn: Medical Records/Release of Information
Fax Number: 617-573-4380

There may be a charge involved if your request is for legal or insurance reasons. (The current fee as of 7/01/04 is $15 plus $.50 per page up to 100 pages and $.25 per page after 100 pages.) If your request is for further medical treatment, there is no charge.


Let us know where to send the information when you make your request. For additional information, please feel free to call 617-573-3356 or 617-573-3931.


It can take 4-6 weeks to receive the requested information if you were a patient here more than a few years ago since the information has to be obtained from archived records.
