DO YOU KNOW THE RULES?

When I see investigations for doctors, the first thing I want to see is the medical record. Even if I don’t understand the medicine at first, I know if I am going to have a problem or not based on the records themselves.

In order to help me and help yourself, the physician must make good use of the medical record he or she has. I would urge you to know Board Rule 165.1 on the requirements for what is required for a medical record in Texas and follow the rules. Review the rules at the Board’s web site. My guess is that you are in violations of the rules as they are written.
