What is the retention schedule for medical records in north carolina??
Answers: There is no statutory or regulatory requirement in NC that provides a definitive amount of time that records must be kept in physicians offices (unless the office is licensed in NC as an ambulatory surgical facility, in which case, records must be kept for a minimum of 20 years). Under HIPAA, records should be retained for a minimum of six years so that patients can obtain access to their records and for disclosure accounting purposes. This is defined under HIPAA as the designated record set, which includes the medical record itself, including records obtained from other providers (if used in medical decision making), and financial records, including Explanation of Benefits.
For Medicare and Medicaid investigations, records should be kept for seven years Therefore, the minimum amount of time to keep records should be seven years from the last date of service.
