There is a fee for records that are considered "Archival," which depends on the discharge date.

There may be a copy charge for medical records, as authorized by Florida law. It is often helpful to discuss your request with a representative of the hospital's Health Information Management (Medical Records) Department. You may be able to reduce the copying costs by requesting a few key documents, rather than the entire medical record. There is no charge for a patient whose records are copied if it is necessary for the continuation of medical health care service. This can be demonstrated by having the medical records sent directly to the treating physician or health care facility.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center has turned over transgender patient medical records to the Tennessee Attorney General's office, which confirmed Tuesday it is conducting an investigation into potential medical billing fraud.

The Tennessean reviewed a VUMC notice informing patients of the move, which the facility said was the result of an investigation into "billing for transgender care services provided to individuals enrolled in State-sponsored insurance plans." The state requested medical records from Jan. 1, 2018 to the present.

The state has legal standing to seek the private medical records, per a health care legal expert. However, the move has sparked privacy concerns among families whose children sought treatment at VUMC amid an increasingly contentious political climate surrounding transgender issues in Tennessee, where multiple legal battles are ongoing over state policies.

"VUMC received requests from the Office of the Tennessee Attorney General as part of its investigation seeking information about transgender care at VUMC. The Tennessee Attorney General has legal authority in an investigation to require that VUMC provide complete copies of patient medical records that are relevant to its investigation. VUMC was obligated to comply and did so," John Howser, VUMC's chief communications officer, said in a statement.

Court records filed in a separate case reveal Tennessee officials used a powerful legal tool called a civil investigative demand, which doesn't require probable cause or a judge's sign-off to compel testimony or documents. Tennessee first sought the medical records for a list of specific patients, before issuing another CID in March with sweeping demands for broad documentation, including emails sent and received from a general LGBTQ health program email address and the names of any individuals referred to the transgender clinic. It's unclear if Vanderbilt has supplied those records to the state.

Paul Hales, a St. Louis-based attorney who specializes in health information privacy, said the attorney general has legal recourse under federal and state law to request patient health records if it is in fact investigating a possible issue at the medical center.
