Rationale: The client has a right to obtain a copy of the chart, but the request must be written, and there might be a charge for the copy. Telling the client that providing a copy of the chart is not allowed is not true. The student may not copy the chart for the client, it must be copied by the Medical Records department, and permission from the doctor is not required. However, it would be a courtesy to notify the doctor that the client requested a copy of the chart. |
