How to Request Copies of your Medical Records

We make every attempt to protect your medical records so they are not shared with others for any reason other than to promote the best health care for our patients. We require authorization from the patient or legal guardian to disclose your protected health information. The health care record is the property of Mitchell County Regional Health Center and is maintained for the use of clinics, hospital and medical staff for the benefit of the patient.

MCRHC has been recognized as a Top 100 Critical Access Hospital by the Chartis Center for Rural Health. This is the fourth time MCRHC has received this national honor.

Awarded honorees are determined by the results of iVantage Health Analytics’ Hospital Strength INDEX®. To determine the 2024 list, the Chartis Center used the Hospital Strength Index, which assesses performance in eight areas: inpatient market share, outpatient market share, quality, outcomes, patient perspective, cost, charges, and financial efficiency.

Hospitals recognized as a Top 100 facility had one of the 100 highest overall scores among all rural and community and critical access hospitals nationally. There is no application process and recognition is solely based on performance data.

MCRHC previously received Top 100 honors in 2018, 2019 and 2023.
