There will be a fee to obtain the records. I think that with children, they have to keep them longer because the child can sue after age 18.
Wow I’ve never heard of such a thing. When my husband died, and I knew that he died under nefarious circumstances, I went to get the records from the hospital, and they didn’t charge me anything. But that was 15 years ago ago
Maybe it depends on the hospital. It could be used as a deterrent to discourage lawsuits by people who might have little funds to request the records.
of course. Only the rich and elite can afford records, right 🤷♀️
Exactly. Only the rich can afford to sue the hospitals. The hospitals have all the major law firms under retainers, so in the event of a lawsuit, one is forced to go outside of the city to find a lawyer. Even then your lawyer is subject to a pay off, bribe or blackmail.
