Request to amend your medical records

Use this service to amend entries in your medical records. We are only able to amend your records if there is a factual inaccuracy.

Where the information written in your record is factually correct, it is unlikely that we will be able to change your record.

In cases where it is agreed that the information is inaccurate, it may still be necessary to retain the information. For example, health and care professionals may have taken the information into consideration when making decisions about treatment or care. You can, however, request for a comment or entry to be made in the record to show that you disagree with the content and what you think it should say.
