State law for this request: Missouri
- Response deadline
- 30 days (HIPAA)Missouri law only says records must be furnished 'within a reasonable time,' so the HIPAA deadline controls: 30 days, with one 30-day extension if the provider tells you in writing. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 191.227, 45 CFR 164.524)
- Copy fees
- $0.70/pageFor 2026 (effective Feb 1, 2026), Missouri caps charges at a $30.32 search/retrieval fee plus $0.70 per page, plus postage; an extra $28.39 may apply if records are stored off-site, and notarization (if requested) is capped at $2. Electronic copies cost the lesser of those fees or $132.89. Amounts adjust every February 1 by medical-care CPI; HIPAA's cost-based limit still applies to patients' own requests. (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 191.227, Mo. DHSS, Fees for Medical Records (effective 2/1/26), 45 CFR 164.524)
