For the record.
The management of medical records in the current climate of fragmented and managed care has created very real and present difficulties for physicians. Florida law protects the patient's right to the medical record and insures confidentiality and access. Similar protections for physicians, to allocate the costs of 20th century record keeping fairly among the parties, and to insure the physician access to information necessary to treat the patient or to defend himself, are essential but so far not forthcoming.
