ARRA mandates that patients have the right to require a covered entity to electronically re-transmit information to an entity designated by the patient. This provision reinforces a patient's ability to access and control their own healthcare information, even if it is in electronic format. ARRA does not require a paper-based printout, restrict transmission of healthcare information to patients if it was received in a manual format, or reinforce a patient's right to access paper-based records.
