The state Supreme Court has declined to pull its grant of allocatur in a class action suit over whether health care providers can base their charges for providing hard copies of medical records on the maximum charges spelled out under state law, despite legislative changes from the Pennsylvania General Assembly that appeared to remove the core of the class’ claim.
The justices late last month denied a motion from a Pennsylvania medical records company, which asked the high court to grant the company leave to provide more authority and to summarily affirm the state Superior Court’s decision or to dismiss the appeal as improvidently granted altogether.
