When must a facility inform its patients of closure and how and where to obtain records?

Within 10 calendar days of closure
Within 15 calendar days of closure
Within 30 calendar days of closure
Within 7 calendar days of closure

The correct answer is: Within 10 calendar days of closure

A facility must inform its patients of closure within 10 calendar days for a few reasons. If patients are not informed promptly, they may not know where or how to obtain their medical records, which contain important information about their health. This could lead to delays in receiving necessary care or transferring their records to a new healthcare provider. Additionally, notifying patients within a timely manner shows respect and consideration for their well-being and provides them with enough time to make arrangements for their records. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because the longer the facility waits to inform patients of closure, the more inconvenient and disruptive it may be for the patients.
