The nurse probably knows a lot and her loyalty was to Dr TS!!!!! She doesn't want any part of what is going on....otherwise she probably would help out each day with the patient's records.

I hadn't heard that the nurse doesn't want any part of what is going on. <modsnip>
The nurse might not be legally authorized to help out with the patient's records.

Is it possible that LE has prevented any activity concerning patients records?

That is a distinct possibility. Didn't LE eventually seize the computers from the office?

I believe one of the verified patients confirmed that all of Dr. Sievers' records were stored electronically. If so, that may well be the reason why none have been transferred since they seized the office computers.

Right, the victim's business, the medical practice, probably comes under the murder scene investigation umbrella.
 
We know Dr. Sievers had a successful practice and she did not bill insurance. Her patients paid "at the window" I wonder how much she charged per session.

Just to add some clarity to the legalese here...

It isn't that complicated to have an authorized custodian of medical records. It can be fairly simple and straight forward.

I worked for a medical office for several years and was in charge of medical records. (I'm not in FL but I suspect it doesn't differ much because medical records need to be turned over in a timely manner.) During that time we became custodian of records for 2 doctors that I can recall. One passed away unexpectedly, the other one was no longer able to practice for other reasons (although unexpected, sudden). Both times, it was very simple, quick and without a lot of fanfare. (Well, except for the office staff receiving all the records. For us it was a major headache and a lot of work.) The practice of both doctors sent their patients a letter informing them that all of their records had been forwarded to our office, complete with detailed info how to contact us. Some of their patients chose to remain as patients at our practice (in which case we kept the old records), others requested that their records be transferred to another doctor they had chosen to see.

One of those Occam's Razor kind of things to me. :)

THIS! I'm sure TS was very diligent, had chosen a designated custodian and if not, the executor of her estate (MS) can release the records.:gaah:

You're welcome Chelly. I understand why you got so excited... there's a lot to read about her FEES - - 2 1/2 pages of the 4 page document!

If Doctor Sievers was killed because she "found out" something was wrong with the books, and told her husband, WHAT WOULD BE THE PURPOSE OF KILLING HER?? Even with TS murdered, her husband would still have the knowledge of wrong doing. And, CWW would still be at risk of discovery, because SURELY MS would REPORT CWW (his lifelong buddy) TO THE POLICE. (Insert sarcasm emoticon). Or is CWW so convinced, his buddy would NEVER turn him for anything, based on past indiscretions? THAT IS A REAL BIG RED FLAG....Why kill the spouse you think will expose you, but leave the other spouse alive....couldn't/wouldn't they have the same ability to call LE and expose you? hmmmm.....
If the doctor knows there is a problem, the office manager knows. But not necessarily the other way around.
LOGIC SCREAMS, MS KNEW....

AND NO TELEPHONE CALLS WERE NECESSARY TO COMPLETE THIS MURDER.......more to come! It will surprise you!

I don't think she told her husband anything.
She may not have known anything.
CWW MIGHT have known something she was about to do was going to be his downfall.
 
It's just my opinion, but I cannot believe LE is the reason for the records not getting sent out. In some cases it is vital that a new doctor have the patients past medical records. IMO if LE was refusing to release the records and someone died because a new doctor didn't have access to the records LE could be sued.
I know in past cases that I have followed LE has taken a clone of the hard drive and then returned the computer. LE then has an exact copy of the hard drive at the time they had it in their custody.
There is just no reason to me why LE would not allow for the records to be released, even if they are on the computer.

:laugh: F/U payments

This sentence was sad to me:
&#8226; THE FOURTH WEEK OF JULY: IN 2013: 7 /19/13 THROUGH 7/28/13. WE WILL RESUME OUR NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS 7/29/13.


RECORDS: WHEN YOU LEAVE DOCTOR SIEVERS&#8217;S OFFICE YOU WILL BE GIVEN TYPED COPY OF YOUR NOTE AND PLAN AS WELL AS INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU KEEP A COPY OF THIS IN A FILE AT HOME SO IN THE EVENT THAT YOU ARE SEASONAL, TRAVEL OR HAVE TO GO THE HOSPITAL. YOU WILL HAVE YOUR MOST RECENT NOTES AS WELL AS TEST RESULTS.


SHOULD YOU NEED TO SEE ANOTHER DOCTOR, FOR ANY REASON, YOU WILL HAVE YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS IN YOUR POSSESSION. ?? :confused:

IF WE REFER YOU TO A DOCTOR WE WILL SEND THE PERTINENT RECORDS ALLOWING THE SPECIALISTS&#8217; OFFICE TO GIVE YOU AN APPT.

IF YOU TRANSFER YOU CARE TO ANOTHER PHYSICIAN, FOR WHATEVER REASON, APPLICABLE FEES WILL APPLY IN ORDER TO RELEASE THE RECORDS. Of course there will be a fee. A fee, fi, fo, and a fum.......and then an additional fee. :smile:

LOL@ Chelly :wave:

A huge THANK YOU to SeesSeas :bow:
 
Fees, fees, fees! You aren't kidding, Dmacky!

The hours of the practice were pretty cush. My husband is an internist and works from 8 am until he is done at... 6 or 7 pm.

And I know I can be a stickler for grammar but dang. I wanted to get out my red pen for the spelling, grammar, and formatting of that PDF. It seemed kind of haphazardly put-together.

Bless you for saying so - I agree! There is something about that website that makes my teeth itch. It just doesn't show the kind of careful attention to detail one expects, and requires, from a doctor. It's unprofessional.
 
And I couldn't help but notice how many times MS mentioned himself. It seemed like every other sentence said something pertaining to contact Mark or the office manager or Mark, the office manager. JMO

Yes, I picked up on the silliness of the repeated mention of "Mark". That office document of SOP and fees is so unprofessional, it is embarrassing.

Thank you again, SeesSeas, for providing the link:

Yikes, hopefully someone other than MS handled the English/grammar aspects of homeschooling.

Also, if for some reason it was LE that was keeping them from being released, I don't think LE could prevent MS from notifying patients that their records were being held up due to an investigation. For that matter, I'd think the sheriff's office might even notify those affected. MS managed to contact everyone encouraging them to continue with their supplement purchases, why couldn't he send out a quick status on their records when he was at the office doing cleanup?
