Do I have a right to get my medical records?

 

A:

Yes. Pursuant to a federal law called HIPAA, you are entitled to inspect or copy your medical records. If you request a copy of your records, your health care provider is entitled to charge a cost-based fee that includes only the cost of (a) copying; and (b) postage, when you request that the copy be mailed to you.

If you have a specific question about HIPAA or medical malpractice, please call us at 412-471-4300 or 800-350-6161, or contact us.  At Berger & Lagnese, our lawyers specialize in medical malpractice, and work on cases in Pittsburgh, Greensburg, Uniontown, Beaver, Erie, Washington, and all of Western Pennsylvania.  Our team of lawyers will find out what happened with your medical care and will get you the answers to your questions.
