Abstract
To the Editor.— In the Sept 21 issue ofThe Journal, there was a letter regarding the prompt forwarding of medical records. 1 This is a rather disturbing problem because with the increasing number of facilities, prepaid plans, and relocation of people, the demand for the forwarding of records is beginning to become an intolerable burden. I feel that the American Medical Association should recognize this and take appropriate action to try to establish some guidelines for the financial remuneration for this type of thing, since in many offices the amount of time and effort involved, photocopying and so on, runs into a substantial amount.
