Petition 115
| Petition Information | |
|---|---|
| Petition Title | Amend 12 VAC 35-115-90 |
| Date Filed | 9/14/2010 [Transmittal Sheet] |
| Petitioner | Steven Shoon |
| Petitioner's Request | Amend 12 VAC 35-115-90 to include the statement that "clinical findings required to be stated for denial or limitation of access to service records shall not be construed as the reason required to be documented or explained under 12 VAC 35-115-100." |
| Agency's Plan | The Board anticipates it will consider public comments on this request at its November 30, 2010 meeting and will then determine what appropriate action is required. |
| Comment Period | Began 1/3/2011 Ended 11/1/2010 0 comments |
| Agency Decision | Take no action [Transmittal Sheet] |
| Response Date | 12/6/2010 |
| Decision Publication Date | Published on: 1/3/2011 Volume: 27 Issue: 9 |
| Agency Decision Summary | This appears to be a practice issue. The stipulations of § 90 are based on the requirements of the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), while the provisions of § 100 relate to everyday freedoms and have nothing to do with accessing an individual's service record. |
