I went to a new doctor last week for a hand issue, and when the nurse left the room, my medical chart was left open on the computer screen. There, in a 2 inch by 1 inch block in the top, right corner in large, bold letters, it said PATIENT REFUSED. I always figured my refusal of the jab was displayed somewhere because I could always tell the doctor’s reaction to me. But the size of this literally screamed to any doctor that I had not complied. I almost felt violated with the size emphasis to make sure no medical person ever misses that I bucked their order. It fully taints any trust or relationship I have or could have with that medical person.

Right, I’m sure they have to hand them over. I just think they throw up low-key resistance. Nothing official on paper that says they refused, more like a snotty attitude and making you feel like an asshole. I didn’t push it because it seemed like a hassle.
I would push them- i have easily obtainedy FULL med records to include labs- it just costs the admin fees- more hospital systems are on EMRs and have something similar to MYCHART, you can access labs, drs notes, etc through an online portal...
