How do I get my medical images from providers or medical imaging centers?
After receiving an imaging procedure, ask the radiologic technologist or front desk person for a copy of your medical images on a CD. It's typically free, but they may charge a small fee, and it can take as long as 30 days for you to receive these CDs.
What do I need to bring to CVS® in order to upload my images?
Your doctor's office will provide your medical images on a CD. Bring these CDs to select CVS® locations with Kodak Moments® Photo Kiosks to upload your medical images.
