Since the regulations in UK and the US might be different, I thought maybe we could use a thread to discuss issues as they come up or we learn about them.
My comp attorney made a CD for me that has everything about my injury, meds, treatment, comp, doctors' info..... if you have a comp attorney you might want to get a copy of all your medical info burned onto a CD too. If traveling, would come in VERY handy. I kept all my x-rays, scans, etc
Hey, they are mine and the place never seemed to even notice they never came back.
On the ball. Great monitoring system. LOL
I'm hearing doctors' offices are charging patients for copies of their medical records - at $1/page ? that is pretty damned expensive if you've gone there a long time or have multiple problems.
Burning a CD would be so much cheaper, faster than standing at the copy machine, too. Since doctors have to go on computers anyway -
think about asking for a CD instead of paper records next time.
Just a suggestion.
I would like to keep up with progress made by states to get all pharmacies within their spying reach and the national pharmacy database registry. If anyone knows more about how truly effective the national database is, please PM me. I'm aware the state ones have been around long enough to work out their kinks. Some genius out there needs to think of a way we can deal with this....
Hint * Hint *
Please use this thread to discuss anything about medical records, getting copies, what's in them (like something you can prove incorrect), problems, ideas, updates or info on national pharmacy registry etc.
Hope this helps someone.
