F. Content of record
The health record should support the philosophy of care Which the
country wishes to provide. The record should therefore be designed to reflect the
health priorities, the activities to be carried out, and the identity and status of the
health personnel responsible for the care given. A first step must be to define the
functions to be performed at each level of care and what recording is required. As
a minimum, each record should contain:
1. Sufficient information to identify the patient (the items required will depend
on varying factors such as cultural patterns) ;
2. Date of contact;
3. Reason for contact (complaint or control);
4. Findings;
5. Treatment and recommendations.
I. Release of Records
1. Request for medical records by patient or authorized attendant should be
acknowledged and documents should be issued within 72 hours.
2. Maintain the register of certificates with the detail of medical records issued
with at least one identification mark of the patient and his signature.
3. Effort should be made to computerize the records for quick retrieval.
4. Certain document must be given to the patient as a matter of right. Discharge
summary, referral notes, or death summary are important document for the
patient. Therefore, these documents must be given without any charge for all
including patients who discharge them- selves against medical advice.
5. Doctors are not under any obligation to produce or surrender their medical
records to the police in the absence of valid court warrant.
6. A subpoena to produce clinical records is a form of court order. Failure to
comply is in contempt of court and may be punished. Medical records which
are subpoenaed are to be made over to the court and not to the solicitor who
sought the subpoena.
