Records Fee
I am a little dumbfounded. I recently requested and received records from UNMC on a client that has medical issues. Our APRN and I wanted to know what exactly she was diagnosed with and how serious her illness is, as this client can be somatic at times. Along the with the records, came a bill for $52.31! Although I realize it is legal for them to charge this, I have never been charged by another provider for records. (52 pages of records, most of which were lab results) Anyone else have this experience?

Never! I wonder if they could not have sent the information electronically for a lesser charge. I hope that this is not to become the new norm.
