All medical records are maintained in paper format and can only be provided in the same format. An electronic version of any kind is not available. Each progress note is double sided and consists of two pages.
The patient, guardian or facility requesting the record is responsible for paying the cost of the record prior to it being copied and mailed.
The patient (or guardian) must upload a copy of their valid Driver's License or a valid form of state identification with the Release of Information form found in the link below.
These are the charges per page, plus postage pursuant to Wis. Stat. §146.83 (3f) (c) 2:
When the request for your medical record is received, cost of copying and postage will be provided. Once payment is received, the record will be sent within 30 days.
Payment can be made by check or credit/debit card.
If it is not possible to provide the record in 30 days, notification will be provided regarding the reason for the delay and the approximate timeframe the record can be expected to be received.
For questions about receiving your medical record, please call 414-774-6878 or send an email to clinic@leespsych.net.
