Question
Kay2009
I have never felt I had my late husbands complete medical records. I want to see things like why did
his Simvastatin quit showing up on his medication list, the instructions, settings and how many hours to use his CPAP,
why shouldn't he take benzo's and then he was. I asked for every page, every note, etc.. C file does not have any of his medical records
in it. So, my question is, if I feel there is more information after many requests, should I use FOIA to ask for them?
Thank you for your time.
I would like to clarify that I have sent the proper forms (5X) to the facilities and gone through the Congress women.
The Congress women had them call me and the facility told me that not all Doctors take notes, so there was nothing more to see.
Just want to let people kow I have sent forms previously
