How to get your medical records from MetroHealth

MetroHealth (Cleveland, OH) publishes MyChart portal as a records route. MetroHealth patients can request records through MyChart's Sharing Hub or by submitting an Authorization to Release Protected Health Information form to its Health Information Management Release of Information office. For HIPAA-covered providers, federal access rules generally require action within 30 calendar days and limit copy fees to specified, reasonable cost-based items.
