Q: Where can I escalate a claim against my primary physician who violated MCL 750. 492a. Bureau of Licensing refuses action
I brought this complaint to the bureau my primary said I had a brain tumor two times and my neurosurgeon clearly states I never had one but the bureau refuses to take any action
A: MCL 750.492a pertains to placing misleading or inaccurate information in medical records or chart. Subsection (4) provides that violation of this statute does not give rise to a civil cause of action for damages. However, if LARA BPL has chosen not to take action, you may try reaching out to the Michigan Attorney General's Office's Consumer Protection Division.
