Medical Records Requests

Your medical record is a legal document that keeps track of your health history. You have a legal right to inspect, review, and receive a copy of it. 

Requesting Your Medical Records

To request a copy of your medical record, you need to submit a completed authorization form electronically, by fax, mail, email, or in person. 

How to Submit In-Person

An authorization form may be picked up and/or dropped off at the Kimball Health Services Medical Records Office at 255 W 4th Street in Kimball.

The Medical Records Office is open daily between 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

How to Submit by Fax

You can fax a completed authorization form to (308) 235-1955.

How to Submit by Mail

You can mail completed authorization forms to the following address:

Kimball Health Services - Health Information Department
255 W 4th St.

Kimball, NE 59145

How to Submit by Email: 

You can email a completed authorization form to  his@kimballhealth.org

Please note that if you are unable to encrypt your email, the information on the form will not be secure during the email submission process.

Patient Portal

The Patient Portal of Kimball Health Services is a safe, easy-to-use website where you can access your personal health history, screening results, and important information about your care. It's private, always open, and super simple to use.

Inside the patient portal, you can see who your doctors are, what health problems you've had if you have any allergies, your shots, the medicines you take, results of lab tests done in-house, your vital signs like heart rate and temperature, and reports from any scans you've had. 

You can even download this information to show to other doctors.

How to Set up Your Patient Portal

When you first come to the hospital or clinic, one of our staff will ask for your email address. They'll use this to set up your access to the Patient Portal. 

You'll get an email from us that invites you to log in. If you're treated at our clinics and the hospital, you'll have to make two profiles - one for your clinic records and another for your hospital records. 

If you need any help getting into your Patient Portal or resetting your password, you can email Laura Bateman at lbateman@kimballhealth.org.

Immunization Records Requests

How you request your immunization records depends on what state you live in.
