Health Records Overview PDF Print E-mail

Recording the health information for you and your family is the best way to organize and share your health information with your family and with your healthcare providers. We recommend that you complete a personal health record for each member of your family and save all documents. Print out and take your health record with you to each visit with your healthcare provider and then update it after the appointment to always have up-to-date health information at your fingertips.

Importantance of Records
The more you know about your health, the more control you can take to maintain wellness and prevent disease. Collecting your information will also provide an easy way to share important information with all your healthcare providers.

Getting Started
The first step in starting your GetFit Health Records is to request a copy of your records from all your healthcare providers including your primary care and specialty physicians as well as your eye doctor and dentist. If you cannot do this all at once, you can collect during your next visit with that physician. You may also want to have conversations with your parents or grandparents if you do not know your family medical history. Once you have gathered all of your information, simply record it in the documents provided. Let a trusted family member know that you are creating your family's GetFit Health Records and tell them where they will able to find it in the event of an emergency.

Pet records
Since many people consider their pets as part of their family, it is also a good practice to keep these records as well.
