It increases the initial fee and per-page costs for paper and electronic copies, while also removing the initial fee for patients requesting their own records. The bill also updates language, clarifies rules for medically indigent individuals, and sets a schedule for annual fee adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index starting in 2028.
