来看看美国对病历拷贝的收费规定

这里一些ID言之凿凿地说美国医生转病历绝对不收钱！可我无凭无据，为了向收费医生讨个说法，专门上网查医生收钱是否合法，结果令人失望，看来收费不收费都由医生决定，不收，那你是碰上好人了；收，你也没话说。可莫名其妙的是，我不过在这里陈述了我被收费的经历，就被人炝，有些人真是神经质!

 

4. Get electronic copies of your records If you want a physical copy of your records, rather than a picture or copies you make yourself, you can limit the amount you must pay by asking for electronic copies only, rather than physical copies. HIPPA allows providers to charge “reasonable, cost-based fees,” for providing records, and covered providers are allowed to calculate these fees using different methods such as assessing actual costs or using average costs. However, as HHS said, covered entities can charge a flat fee of up to $6.50 total for electronic copies of all electronically-maintained personal health records. Always ask for your costs upfront to be sure. Many providers don’t want to go through the trouble of trying to use average cost or actual cost formulas, so they just charge this $6.50 fee. But there is no guarantee that $6.50 is all you’ll be charged — especially if your request is complicated or time-consuming for your provider to fulfill.
