Patients & Visitors
We don't see you as just a patient - we see you as a friend or neighbor. We take the time to understand your needs and provide you with quality, personalized care that helps you reach your full potential.
Medical records information
Gundersen Health System respects each patient's right to the confidentiality and privacy of their healthcare information. We will make every attempt to protect the privacy of patient information so that such information is not heard, read, or otherwise shared with others for any reason other than to promote the best healthcare outcomes for our patients.
In order to disclose protected health information, we require signed authorization from the patient or legal guardian. The healthcare record is the property of Gundersen and is maintained for the use of the hospital, clinic, medical staff and for the benefit of the patient. You may request copies of your health information at any time, with reasonable notice and payment of copying costs.
Please contact our Medical Records Department at 715-538-4361 ext. 64170
