Your Personal Health Information: A Guided Tour

How is my health information collected and where does it go?



 


Registration/Admitting

The Registration or Admitting area is where the journey of your health information “officially” begins. The registration/admitting staff will:

  • Obtain or verify your personal and financial information, including where you live and method of payment
  • Forward any forms you will need to fill out, such as consent forms
  • Provide you with a copy of the healthcare facility's notice of privacy practices explaining what will be done with your health information
  • Generate a list of the valuables you have with you if you are admitted
