How to Obtain a CDPH Medical Record

Medical records for current or former Chicago Department of Public Health patients can be requested by email to CDPHCompliance@cityofchicago.org, via fax to 312.747.9663, or in person at any of our clinic sites. In some instances a valid authorization will be required before the record may be released. However, an authorization shall not be required if the individual is requesting their own medical record or a personal representative is requesting the medical record on the individual’s behalf. A reasonable, cost-based fee may be charged for permitted costs of providing the record. However, any individual who is unable to pay a fee may request a waiver of the fee and shall not be required to pay the fee.
