Ted,
Thank you so much for raising the issue of the California Health and Safety code section 123148. For those of us supporting the online medical record initiatives at Kaiser, this law has been an ongoing frustration, as it means that some of the people who care the most about their test results can’t see them online.

Jan,
Thanks for commenting – I wonder what the opportunity is for us to hear from patients about what this means for them and have a discussion? The law was passed in 2002. It’s now 2008, and many millions of lab test results shared in other states later….
