Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 64B19-19.005 - Releasing Psychological Records
(1) Any licensed psychologist who agrees to
provide copies of psychological records to a service user, a service user's
designee, or a service user's legal representative, shall be accorded a
reasonable time, not to exceed thirty (30) days, to make final entries and copy
the psychological records, and may condition release of the copies upon payment
by the requesting party of the reasonable costs of reproducing the
records.
(2) Any licensed
psychologist who opts to issue a report rather than provide copies of
psychological records to a service user, a service user's designee, or a
service user's legal representative, shall issue the report within thirty (30)
days of the request, and may charge a reasonable fee for the preparation of the
report and may condition the issuance of the report upon payment of the
reasonable fee.
(3) The
psychologist's notes pertaining to psychological services rendered may be
considered raw data as provided by subsection
64B19-18.004(3),
F.A.C., at the discretion of the psychologist and therefore can be released
only (1) to a licensed psychologist or school psychologist licensed pursuant to
chapter 490, F.S., or Florida certified, or (2) when the release of the
material is otherwise required by law.
