FL H1387

Amends Florida Statutes § 766.1065 to revise the authorization form required when sending presuit notice of intent to initiate medical negligence litigation

Clarifies that the authorization form only permits health care providers to furnish copies of written and electronic medical records, not other communications or conversations regarding patient health information

Makes presuit notice void if the required authorization does not accompany it, and retroactively voids any statute-of-limitations tolling effect if the authorization is later revoked

Specifies that authorization extends to health information from providers who examined or treated the patient after the alleged negligence and from providers treating the patient during the 2 years before the incident

Takes effect upon becoming law
