Individual Right of Access The NPRM would make several changes to individuals’ Privacy Rule right to inspect and obtain copies of their protected health information (PHI) maintained in a designated record set. The proposed changes would: Expand the methods that individuals may use when inspecting their health information to include the ability to take notes, videos and photographs. Require covered entity health care providers to allow patients to review PHI upon request that is readily available at the point of care in conjunction with a health care appointment. Reduce the time limit for covered entities to provide access from 30 to 15 calendar days.
