An Act ensuring access to medical records

HD 3250, titled "An Act ensuring access to medical records," prohibits healthcare entities from charging separate fees for transmitting patient electronic medical records. This applies specifically when data transmission is needed for coverage, payment, care coordination, or health care quality improvement efforts. The bill directly affects hospitals, insurers, and other healthcare providers handling electronic health records. It creates a concrete policy change by banning additional charges for this standard administrative function, improving access to records without cost barriers.
