Safety - As introduced, decreases from five to three the number of business days an ambulance service provider has to furnish to a patient or their authorized representative a copy of the patient's run record upon written request; decreases from five to three the number of business days an ambulance service provider has to furnish a copy of the patient's run record to a surveyor employed by the health facilities commission upon written request. - Amends TCA Title 56; Title 68 and Title 71.
SB 1380 shortens the deadline ambulance services must provide patient run records. It reduces the required time from five to three business days for both patients (or their authorized representatives) who request copies and for health surveyors working with the Health Facilities Commission. The bill amends Tennessee law in Titles 56, 68, and 71 to implement this change. This affects ambulance providers statewide by streamlining their response time to record requests. The policy change is procedural, focusing solely on accelerating access to medical documentation.
