Expert Advice When You Need It Most

I wrotea request for my med. record & their electronic footprint.I get "file not found"

This required for them to provide me with my medical record, is it not? Thereaed is mor to this tht meats the scenes, however, I saw the employee nurse twice and I also had my pre-employment physical there done, so how can my file "go missing". I'd like to know how I can get this information subpeonaed. Who can I hire for help??

Alison,

You can try the Joint Commission (JCAHO) or your state's department of health services. To get a subpoena, you would have to file a lawsuit. You can also have an attorney request the records with a signed HIPAA release form.
