I take it private hospitals don't even have to do this? Bit like doctors just keeping their own notes on your visits but we never really see our own files?
Hey Liz, if you want to read your hospital notes you should be able to do so under the freedom of information act. You may have to pay a small fee (I think around $30?) for the time that goes into retrieving your file, etc, but you can certainly read everything they've written about you.
