Record Request Fees

Of all the administrative requests clients can make, a request for clinical records is the most regulated when it comes to fees.

Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), a covered entity can charge reasonable cost-based fees for providing medical records to patients (see 45 CFR 164.524(c)).

In addition, many states have published guidelines for what constitutes “reasonable” fees.
