Getting copies of lab reports Jan 30, 2012 I was recently told by the lab that does my testing that they will not release a copy of labs to patients, period. If I want a copy of my labs I should get them from the ordering doctor. I thought that under HIPAA you can get a copy of any medical record as long as a signed a valid consent for release of information form is presented. Who is right? |

 You should get the copies from your doctor. It's easier, they usually won't charge, and it's an opportunity to go over the results with your doctor at the same time. | ||||||||
