What are my rights regarding access to medical records?

You have the right to access your medical records under the NHS. This means you can request to see your health information, including test results, treatment history, and any notes made by your healthcare providers. To access your records, you usually need to submit a request to your GP or the relevant NHS trust. They may ask you to fill out a form and provide identification. Once your request is processed, you should receive your records within a reasonable timeframe. It's important to review your records to ensure their accuracy and to help you understand your medical history better.
