Medical record access and retention guidelines are found in many portions of the Illinois Compiled Statutes. Recognizing that many physicians need detailed information regarding these issues, the Illinois State Medical Society (ISMS) has produced this brochure to guide physicians so that they are in compliance with the law with respect to medical record access and medical record retention issues. Additionally, good risk management principles are included as guidelines for medical record documentation.
