CFMC medical records: We’re on the eve of destruction

Letter

By on Mon, July 12, 2010

There are only 5 weeks left before all remaining medical records from the Coastside Family Medical Clinic are scheduled to be destroyed. Our volunteer group, the HMB Phoenix Project, has so far managed to get over 3500 records distributed to patients, but there are still 24,000 records left. I urge any former patients to contact me at 787-8005 as soon as possible regarding their records - you never know when something in the past may be important in the future, and by August 20 all chance to claim them will be lost. Please don’t put it off any longer - there are no lines, no charge, and a convenient distribution location in downtown HMB. If you’ve already requested them from us, please make a note to remind yourself to come in and pick them up.
