RE: Right to Inspect and Copy Internal Offices Notes

2003-03-20 Thread Leslie C Bender 









Traci/Jill – what are your thoughts
about QA or nurses’ reports documenting patient related incidents?  The DRS definitions seem broad enough to
capture these, but what if there are state laws that would not make them
subject to say “discovery” in litigation?  Do you think HIPAA now would pick them
up?

If the internal notes are
used in whole or in part to make a decision about an individual, then they
would be part of the DRS.

Internal Offices Notes

Patients have the right to inspect and copy their
medical record a practice maintains in a designated record set. I understand
that some offices keep internal notes of sorts (this patient is difficult,
cooperative, etc.). Do patients have the right to access those as well? Are
they considered part of the designated record set?

Thanks as always for your helpful input.
