How to Easily Access and Share Medical Records with myDox

November 10, 2025 Delara Mirdamadi

Let’s face it—medical records are notoriously hard to track down. One doctor has your test results, another has your surgical history, and somewhere out there is a childhood vaccine record you haven’t seen in years.

Whether you’re managing your own healthcare or caring for a child, spouse, or aging parent, having quick access to medical records can make all the difference.

That’s where myDox comes in. It takes the chaos out of medical paperwork and gives you one simple, secure place to store, organize, and share your medical records—when and where you need them.

1. Why Keeping Medical Records Handy Matters

In today’s fast-paced healthcare system, every second counts—especially during emergencies, major diagnoses, or routine appointments with new providers.

Here’s why having your medical records accessible is essential:

Speeds up emergency care
Prevents repeat testing and procedures
Helps you manage chronic conditions
Ensures accurate diagnosis and treatment
Makes it easier to coordinate care across specialists

Example: Your child is starting a new school and you need to provide their vaccine record. Instead of calling the pediatrician, waiting for a fax, or digging through paper files, you just open myDox, pull it up, and send it instantly. Done.

2. What Medical Documents Should You Store in myDox?

You don’t need to save everything, but having the right documents at your fingertips can be a game changer.

Documents Worth Storing:

Vaccine records (especially for school, travel, or childcare)
Health insurance information and ID cards
Medical history summaries
Surgical and procedure records
Lab and test results
Imaging reports (X-rays, MRIs, etc.)
Allergy and medication lists
Chronic condition management plans
Advance directives and medical power of attorney

Pro Tip: Create separate folders for each family member and organize documents by type—”Medications,” “Insurance,” “Vaccine Records,” etc.—for easy searching.
