Colorado HB1414 regulates fees for medical record requests and delivery timelines.

Colorado HB1414 sets limits on fees for medical record requests made by a patient's attorney or personal representative. If the requested record exceeds 664 pages, the health-care entity may charge up to $400. The bill mandates that medical records be delivered within 30 days of receiving an authorization, subpoena, or court order. If the records are not provided within this timeframe, they must be delivered at no cost unless an extraordinary event like a natural disaster prevents it. The bill also requires that records be delivered in electronic format if requested and available.
