Mrs. Jeffries arrives at the cardiology outpatient clinic in a major research hospital. She is moving out of state and demands to take her patient chart with her. The waiting room receptionist is unsure what to do; she receives the following pieces of advice. Which one is correct? O "You can make a copy of it, but ultimately, the chart is the property of the patient. You can be subject to liability if you don't turn it over to her within 24 hours." O "The chart belongs to the physician Mrs. Jeffries saw in this clinic. You'll need his permission to give her a copy, particularly if the data in her chart were included in a research study. O "See whether or not she has insurance. Patient charts belong to whoever is the primary insurance provider. They only belong to the patient if the patient is the primary source of payments." "The patient chart is always a legal medical record, so it belongs to the hospital itself." O None of the above.
