August 15, 2008 Record Retention Reference 2008 EditionWe are pleased to announce the publication of the Record Retention Reference 2008 Edition – available for the first time in both hard copy and electronic versions. Since 1999, the Record Retention Reference has been a valuable resource for the state and federal laws pertaining to the retention of records commonly generated by hospitals, including those related to Accounting, Administration, Clinical, Human Resources, Laboratory, Nursing and more. The last edition was dated 2003. Those who own the 2003 edition have received a memo and brochure under separate cover.

The Record Retention Reference 2008 Edition includes an updated introduction, HIPAA retention requirements and related documentation, updated list of records having state and federal retention requirements, revised appendix of pertinent statutory and regulatory text, and a complete index.Purchasers of the Record Retention Reference 2008 Edition will receive both a hard copy binder and a new electronic version.
