Committee adopts amendment to HB 14 narrowing fee application, adding inflation adjuster and timing fixes

Committee members adopted amendment L001 to House Bill 14, which sponsors described as an operationally important clarification. Representative Camacho explained that L001 makes explicit that the existing per-page statutory fee schedule continues to apply for requests under 664 pages, adds an inflation adjustment to the $400 cap, extends the invoice timeline from 15 to 30 days, mirrors HIPAA’s 30-day extension, defines force majeure, and clarifies that records must be provided upon payment of an invoice.
