060935 -    3.  Mil and I are at UCSF this morning for her treatment.  Did you
060936 -        get the records from UCSF for your review?  Doctor Rugo's
060937 -        assistant called yesterday for permission to release Doctor's
060938 -        Notes on meetings with Millie, to support UCSF billings.  You

060953 -        of a request for Nurses Notes.  She said no one has called the
060954 -        clinic on this, but thought there might be work being done in
060955 -        Medical Records.  However, no one from MR called for permission
060956 -        to release Millie's records to Kaiser, so not sure about status
