This is extremely helpful as Brookwood Baptist in Birmingham AL sent a reply to my inquiry about what happened indicating that they believe I was given “appropriate care”. They did not respond to my question seeking clarification that their position is withholding the radiologist’s report and reco constitutes “appropriate care”.

Unfortuately, I don't think the law applies in my case. The report was available online - I just had no reason to look at it as I was treated for what might have been a heart attack having nothing to do with my lungs.

The Cures Act requires immediate electronic availability upon patient requests for all test results, medication lists, and clinical notes. The Cures Act does not require health care institutions to push unrequested designated electronic health information to patient portals.
