California.
If necessary, a telephone or fax response may be requested.

All biopsy results are reviewed with the patients, initialed by the referring practitioner, and
included in the electronic medical record. Biopsy findings are referred to the Tissue Committee
per local protocols.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
