As part of the Medibanx Service, Clients may direct Medibanx to retrieve their own Medical Records maintained by third-party providers with which they have patient relationships, payors, on third-party sites, including health information exchanges, and/or contractors to any such entities (collectively, “Disclosing Entities”). Disclosing Entities may include (but are not limited to) hospitals, medical facilities, pharmacies, pharmacy benefit managers, laboratories, insurance companies, or any other organization that holds Personal Health Information about you. You may initiate this retrieval by Medibanx by filling out and signing our Authorization to Release Protected Health Information (which can be downloaded here) (the "Medical Record Authorization Form") and direct Medibanx to send such authorization to Disclosing Entities so that Medibanx may receive your Medical Records in paper or electronic form and upload it to your Account.

We may review the Medical Records received from Disclosing Entities to normalize and label data for display, but we are not responsible for any errors in the Medical Records resulting from that review process. Medibanx makes no effort to review the Medical Records for any other purpose, including but not limited to accuracy, legality or non-infringement. Medibanx is not responsible for any Medical Records provided by Disclosing Entities.  If you have a question regarding the content, completeness, or accuracy of your Medical Records, you must contact your applicable health care provider, as we are unable to modify a provider’s records.

You acknowledge that there may be delays in record request processing from Disclosing Entities. Medibanx may be unable to obtain some or all of your Medical Records and cannot guarantee or assume responsibility for the completeness, timeliness, accuracy, relevance, deletion or non-delivery of any Medical Records. Medibanx is not responsible for the way in which data is displayed on the Platform or through the Medibanx Service.
