14. Medical records have to meet all the rules and regulations of
Edited on Thu May-29-08 04:31 PM by cornermouse
the federal government, the state government, and whichever organization they belong to that inspects them on regularly. They also have to meet the requirements and Medicare, Medicaid, and ALL of the various insurance companies in order to be paid. They have to keep complete records so that their attorneys will be happy should the occasion arise. And depending on the system they use, the record can include everything that is being and has ever been done to the patient within the facility.

And that's why McCain has twelve hundred pages in his medical record.
