Home Patient Resources Medical Records Medical Records Privacy is an essential issue at Lompoc Valley Medical Center. To help you understand your medical record, we have provided answers to many frequently asked questions. Use Patient Portal to Access Your Medical Records Our patient portals are a secure online website that gives patients convenient, 24-hour access to personal health information from anywhere with an Internet connection. Using a username and password, patients can message their provider and view health information such as recent doctor visits, discharge summaries, current and past medications, and lab results. Patient Portal access is only granted to patients 18 years of age and older. We currently have two patient portals, Lompoc Valley Medical Center has FollowMyHealth for hospital stays and services, and Lompoc Health has its own portal for all clinic visits and appointments. Learn more about our portals and how to request an account.

Access to all medical records are obtainable by any law enforcement agency: sheriff, coroner, FBI, local police departments, Child Protective Services (CPS), etc. in the role of their investigation. Doctors, doctor's offices, and hospitals affiliated with your care request records and often require the consent of the patient. What if I am unable to get my own records? A patient’s legal representative may request records if the release is submitted with a copy of legal documents stating they are the legal representative. LVMC offers Advance Directives forms free of charge. Should I get a copy of my records if I move? Not necessarily. With your consent, LVMC medical records are available to your new physician.
