Prohibits disclosure of pathology or radiology reports indicating malignancy in electronic health records for 72 hours unless the treating.
New York S10513 amends the public health law to delay the disclosure of pathology or radiology reports indicating a finding of malignancy in a patient's electronic health record for 72 hours. During this period, the report cannot be disclosed unless the treating practitioner contacts the patient about the results before the 72-hour period ends. This delay aims to allow healthcare providers time to discuss significant findings with patients before they can access the information themselves.
