Since doctors/staff communicate to each other in a shorthand, and it would be very difficult to make all that internal communication written in an accessible way. We would likely need a separate team of people transcribing and adding context to all the notes.

What might be a good first step is freeing up healthcare capacity to respond to patient’s inquiries. After that, if we can set up some way of communicating the available resources to the person who FOI’s the medical records, they can get in touch if they have questions.
