Interoperable record retrieval: we streamline access to patient data
Our fast medical record retrieval system connects hospitals, clinics, and health systems nationwide through Carequality-enabled health information exchange (HIE) connections, giving clinicians reliable access to full longitudinal patient charts in minutes.
We have one of the most powerful HIE record retrieval engines
of U.S. patients found through the Health Information Exchanges.

Search and retrieve complete patient charts
Abstractive Health connects into national health information exchange networks, using advanced patient matching and geospatial search around a patient's current and prior addresses to find where care actually occurred. Our engine queries hundreds of endpoints in parallel and returns unified charts and clinical notes within minutes, even when patients have received care across multiple organizations. Under the hood, we normalize CCDA, FHIR, and PDF/TIFF documents into a single longitudinal record so clinicians aren't limited to structured data alone.
Find patient charts fast with AI search
Our AI patient search algorithm uses geospatial logic to search within 100-150 miles of a patient's current and prior addresses, quickly locating records across fragmented systems. Providers can set up to three preferred hospitals or clinics so the most relevant sources are prioritized first, then the algorithm expands across the national exchange, giving small and independent practices the same record retrieval performance as large health systems.
Bulk patient chart retrieval
For high-volume workflows, Abstractive Health supports bulk patient record retrieval for an entire schedule at once. Upload a file with each patient's name, date of birth, and sex (or connect your schedule), and we retrieve and summarize records in advance so longitudinal summaries, medical insights, and custom care notifications are ready before the visit.
AI record retrieval modes for every physician workflow
Record retrieval is powered by three AI-driven modes, each tuned to how aggressively we search the national HIE and how much history we pull into the chart.
Pulse
Optimized to support routine care and everyday clinical needs.
Helix
Designed to surface broader clinical histories for more context.
Nova
The most extensive search, returning the deepest records.
Clinicians can choose the mode that matches the clinical scenario, from routine follow-up visits to complex multi-year histories.
Record Retrieval FAQ
Can my staff or assistant pull patient records for me?
Yes. While Abstractive Health is built for clinician workflows, the platform supports team based care. The system is designed to allow clinical staff or assistants to initiate searches or upload patient schedules so that the retrieved records and AI summaries are ready for the physician before the patient encounter begins.
Can I search for more than one patient record at a time?
Yes. Abstractive Health supports Bulk record Retrieval. For high volume workflows, you can upload a file containing a list of patients (Name, DOB, and Sex) or upload your patient schedule. The system will then retrieve and summarize records for the entire list.
How long does medical record retrieval take?
It is very fast. On average, Abstractive Health retrieves nationwide patient treatment records in approximately 4 minutes. The engine queries hundreds of HIE (Health Information Exchange) endpoints in parallel to ensure speed, even when a patient has received care across multiple different organizations.
What types of medical records can you retrieve?
The system retrieves full longitudinal patient charts. This includes structured data and unstructured documents such as CCDAs, FHIR resources, PDFs, and image based documents (like TIFFs). These are parsed and normalized into readable documents that you can view in one place.
Do you retrieve records from hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers?
Yes. Through integrations with national health information networks like Carequality, We have a reach that covers 94% of U.S. patients. The system uses geospatial search logic to find records from hospitals, clinics, and health systems within 100-150 miles of a patient's current and prior addresses.
Is medical record retrieval HIPAA compliant?
Yes. Abstractive Health is fully HIPAA compliant and has achieved SOC-2 Type 2 certification. We employ rigorous security standards to protect the integrity and privacy of all healthcare data during the retrieval and summarization process.
