ChartSwap Terms of Service – Requestors

Last Updated 05/30/2025


AGREEMENT

Welcome to ChartSwap. ChartSwap is a medical records transfer platform between a requestor of medical or billing records and a person or entity that owns or controls the requested records, designed to allow the secure transfer of records electronically. These Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) govern how you, as a requestor of records (submitted on behalf of yourself, your client, or your organization) (hereinafter, the “Requestor”) will use ChartSwap. When you click “I AGREE” upon creating an account, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. The Service is merely one way to connect requestors and providers electronically. If you do not want to be part of ChartSwap, then do not create an account, and instead deal directly with the provider of the records you are requesting.
