Practice bulletin. Private review entities.
Practice Bulletin is the first in a series to be presented at the behest of the Council on Professional Practice, in response to issues arising in medical record practice today. Clear, useful points listing areas of responsibility as well as policies and procedures are given for both the private review organization, a new protagonist seeking access to patient records, and the facility, traditional guardian of health care records.
