The request procedure, the statutory fee cap, and the provider's response deadline for Idaho. Each value is drawn from the controlling statute.
| Response deadlineHow long the provider has to respond to the request. | 30 days of the request — Idaho has no general patient-access copy-fee/timeline statute, so the federal HIPAA right of access governs (45 C.F.R. § 164.524). |
|---|---|
| Fee structurePermissible copying/retrieval charges (verify the current published schedule). | No Idaho-specific per-page cap. Under HIPAA a provider may charge only a reasonable, cost-based fee — labor for copying, supplies/media, and postage (plus the cost of preparing an agreed summary); inspection in person is free. Verify current practice. |
| Authorization notesWho may request, free-copy carve-outs, and other quirks. | An individual has a federal right to inspect and obtain a copy of their records (psychotherapy notes and certain other information excepted). Idaho's §§ 39-1392–39-1392e address hospital-records confidentiality/peer review, not a patient's own-record copy fees. |
| Controlling statuteThe statute or regulation this rule comes from. | 45 C.F.R. § 164.524 (federal HIPAA right of access; no Idaho-specific statute) |
