Third Parties Requesting Medical Records

What third party representatives need to know

For a copy of medical records or other protected health information on behalf of a Novant Health patient, please submit a completed HIPAA compliant patient authorization or complete the Authorization to Disclose Protected Health or Billing Information form to Novant Health Enterprise Release of Information by faxing it to 704-316-9556 or email your request to roienterprise@novanthealth.org. 

Since the request is not being made directly by the patient, but by a representative, the Patient Right of Access rules do not apply.

For additional information please call the Novant Health Enterprise Release of Information Department at 1-844-763-9163.

In accordance with the federal court decision vacating the third-party directive with the individual right of access in Ciox Health, LLC v. Azar, et al., No. 18-cv-0040 (D.D.C. January 23, 2020), HITECH authorizations will no longer be accepted in lieu of a HIPAA compliant authorization.
