HB 3030 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies provisions for providing copies of medical records

HB 3030 requires healthcare providers in this state to give patients (or their authorized representatives) copies of their health records upon written request, within a reasonable time after receiving the request. Providers may charge specific, capped fees for search, copying, and delivery - up to $24.85 for search/retrieval plus $0.57 per page, with electronic options available for $108.88 total or less. The bill also prohibits fees for records needed to apply for disability, veterans, or other federal benefits (as listed in Section 9) and sets annual fee adjustments based on medical inflation. It clarifies access rules for deceased patients' records and ensures providers aren’t liable for disclosures made in good faith under these provisions.
