Pennsylvania’s “Patient Test Result Information Act” on December 21, 2018

Radiology groups who provide imaging services to patients in Pennsylvania should be aware of a new state law known as the “Patient Test Result Information Act,” or Pennsylvania Act 112 of 2018.  Originally scheduled to begin on December 23, 2018, its implementation has been delayed for a year.  In order to implement compliance with this new law, radiology groups and the facilities in which they practice will have to develop a system to monitor results and identify those that require a notice to be sent.
