HI Valerie!
The records retention schedules for those records is what you should primarily follow for how long to keep the official version of medical records. Once you destroy that official record per retention schedule, it is up to the individual
to utilize other available resources for finding their medical record. As for charges to supply a person a copy of their medical record, I think FOIA can be applied there and the fees that are associated with fulfilling such as request.
Please contact me directly should you have any questions!

Does Virginia have an act or a law which states how long we have to provide a client with a copy of their medical records and if a charge for labor can be billed to them for
the service?
