AB 2610, as introduced, Addis.
 Patient access to health records.

Existing law generally governs a patient’s access to the patient’s own health records. Existing law establishes procedures for providing access to health care records or summaries of those records by patients and by those persons who have responsibility for decisions regarding the health care of others, as described. Existing law sets forth the Legislature’s findings and declarations regarding the right of access to that information, as specified.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those findings and declarations.
