Adopted individuals in the UK often face severe difficulties accessing their biological family's medical history, which can critically impact their healthcare, diagnoses, and treatment. Personal accounts from adults who grew up in care highlight systemic failures, a lack of psychological support when receiving sensitive documents, and delays in discovering hereditary conditions such as malignant hyperthermia and genetic tumour risks. While authorities across the UK require continuity of care records, practices vary widely, and patients lack a legal right to this information. Government officials acknowledge that current adoption support and record-sharing systems need an overhaul to better balance medical privacy with adoptees' health needs.
