In response to the calls, FBI officials said they have set up an email account so people can retrieve their important medical documents. An agency spokesperson said you will be asked to provide your full name, DOB, address and phone number. It will take a week to 10 days to copy the records and return them to patients.
FBI officials said they will then call patients to set up a time to get the records from their office. At that appointment, patients will need to have a photo ID with them.
The email address is pg-healthcare@fbi.gov.
