Legal issues resulting from a patient recording are real. Even so, you should think twice before refusing a patient the right to record their office visit or procedure with your practice.
Denying a patient recording can violate 48 out of 50 states’ laws, where there is a one-party consent rule in place. This means your patient can record whether your practice allows it or not.
Even if you can’t deny them, you can still protect your practice from the legal backlash that these patient recordings can cause.
