The adjustor for the at fault person is asking for a release on my medical records. I don’t really want to hand him my records that he can go snooping in. I don’t have anything to hide, I just don’t think that it’s any of his business.

What am I required to give him?
Can I have my Doctor release information post-accident, and sign off that there were no pre-existing conditions?

What is the law for a medical facility to timely produce my medical records?

I live in washington State and I requested my medical records from the institution I was treated at and have not obtained the records yet. I have also not been told a date as to when I might to expet them. To my knowledge, I believe that thereis a 15 day period that medical institutions had to provide me, or inform me as to when I might receive my medical recrds. Is this grounds for a lawsuit?

Do they seriously look thoroughly through all your medical records…? How would they even get them? Only if you supplied the doctors name and insurance right? And is the physical you get just a regular physical like you get at the doctors? I Want some honest answers.
First of all I never said I was going to lie and you didn’t answer my question at all..
