health records
Patient information archives
Health records are documents containing a patient's medical history, diagnoses, treatments, and test results.
They may be maintained by healthcare providers, insurers, or patients themselves.
Electronic health records have largely replaced paper files in modern medicine: The doctor pulled up my health records to check my vaccination history.
Access to one's own health records is a legal right in most jurisdictions.
