Quality and Uses of Health Information – including confidentiality and compliance

Quality and Uses of Health Information

 Locate the licensure regulations for your state. What are the provisions for the content of a health record? What are the rules regarding the timeliness of completion of a record? Locate any state laws regarding health information or medical records for your state. Are there retention statues? Are references to the costs of providing copies of medical records? Share your thoughts on whether you feel these are quite liberal or too strict. Examine your state’s regulations in relation to some of your peer’s posts.
