Dear Parents and Patients,
This letter is to inform you that Raney Pediatrics will not provide medical care after 5/31/23. Dr. Kent Raney and Jane Raney are retiring. Dr. Jedd Raney is being hired by BCA Pediatrics and will start there on 6/1/23. As such, you will need to find a new pediatrician/doctor by 5/31/23.
Enclosed is a list of other pediatric providers in the Carlsbad area. For the best continuity of care, please make your appointment with the physician of your choice at your earliest opportunity. With your written permission, I will send your new physician a copy of your medical records. Please stop by the office to sign an authorization for release of your medical records or call the office and an authorization will be mailed to you. You will need to return the authorization to our office so that medical records can then be forwarded to the new physician. Please make the first appointment with your new physician as soon as possible to ensure a smooth transition of your care. All patients wishing to follow Dr. Jedd Raney to BCA are welcome to do so, but MUST transfer records to BCA Pediatrics.
If you choose not to see any of the physicians on the enclosed referral list, you can also consult the New Mexico Medical Society for further options. If Pediatric care is needed after 5/31/23, but before a new health care provider is found, you should go to the nearest hospital emergency room.
The privacy and confidentiality of your medical records is important to us and my practice takes all reasonable and appropriate efforts to comply with federal and state regulations pertaining to medical records. If your medical records are not sent to a new health care provider by 5/31/23, the medical records will be stored online at Morgan Records Management, LLC. These records can be requested online by going to morganrecordsmanagement.com, then Patient Records Requests, then click Request My Medical Records. If you prefer, you can request them by email at medical@morganrm.com. Morgan Records Management's phone number is (833) 888-0061. In accordance with applicable state law, you may be charged for the copying and transmittal of the records. Also, there may be a transition period from when Raney Pediatrics closes to the time Morgan Records Management has access to my charts, but every effort has been made to ensure medical records will be sent where requested in a timely manner.
Raney Pediatrics wants to thank you for allowing us to participate in your children's pediatric care. Please contact our office on or before 5/31/23 if you have any questions.
Very truly yours,
Dr. J. Kent Raney, Jane Raney CPNP, Dr. J. Jedd Raney
