*256 The defendant, Anthony P. Colandrea, appeals from the judgment of the trial court granting the petition to enforce a subpoena duces tecum filed by the plaintiff, the Commissioner of Public Health, 1 requesting the production of certain patient records from the defendant. The defendant claims that the plaintiff failed to make a sufficient factual showing that the subpoenaed records were related to a complaint under investigation, as required by General Statutes § 52-146 o . 2 We affirm the judgment of the trial court.

The following facts and procedural history are relevant to the defendant's claim. The defendant is a dentist licensed by the Department of Public Health (department). On August 27, 2014, the department opened an investigation into allegations of fraudulent billing practices by the defendant. The investigation was prompted by a referral from Verisk Health Management (Verisk), a company that contracted with United Healthcare, a health insurer, to audit various health care providers. After a review of the defendant's billing to United Healthcare, Verisk made numerous attempts to obtain *257 patient records from the defendant. The defendant refused to comply with Verisk's requests for records, and Verisk filed a complaint with the Office of the Attorney General. The Office of the Attorney General referred the complaint to the department, which commenced the investigation at issue.

As part of its investigation, on November 16, 2015, the department, pursuant to its authority under General Statutes § 19a-14(a)(10), 3 issued a subpoena duces *473 tecum to the defendant, instructing him to produce "[c]omplete copies of all records (including but not limited to all progress notes, x-rays, images, and billing records)" for thirty-one patients. The defendant failed to comply with the department's subpoena. On December 10, 2015, the plaintiff, pursuant to § 19a-14(a)(10), 4 filed a petition for enforcement of the subpoena and an application for an order to show cause. The defendant filed an objection to the petition for enforcement.

The court held a hearing on January 25, 2016. At the hearing, the defendant argued that § 52-146 o , 5 the *258 physician-patient privilege statute, prohibited him from disclosing the subpoenaed records absent patient consent. The defendant acknowledged that, pursuant to § 52-146 o (b)(3), 6 the department may subpoena records without patient consent, but maintained that the plaintiff failed to meet the requirements for this statutory exception because the subpoena contained "no indication as to how [the subpoenaed records] relate to the complaint or investigation." The defendant claimed that, at that time, he did not "even know what the investigation is against him."

In response to the defendant's objection, the plaintiff presented the testimony of Kathleen W. Boulware, a public health services manager in the department's practitioner investigation unit. Boulware testified, in relevant part, that (1) Verisk was hired by United Healthcare to audit its records to determine if there was any fraudulent activity occurring; (2) Verisk had attempted to obtain records directly from the defendant as part of its investigation; (3) after multiple failed attempts to obtain records directly from the defendant, Verisk sent a complaint to the Office of the Attorney General; (4) Verisk provided a list of selected defendant's patients with the complaint; (5) the department began investigating the defendant when it received the complaint from the Office of the Attorney General; (6) the department first attempted to request the records from the defendant by letter, which was standard practice; (7) after failing to obtain the records by letter, the department issued a subpoena for approximately 50 percent of the records identified by Verisk; and (8) it *259 *474 is standard practice for the department to issue subpoenas to dental professionals to review patient records for possible fraudulent activity. The defendant's counsel was given the opportunity to cross-examine Boulware but declined to do so.

The trial court, relying on Edelstein v. Dept. of Public Health & Addiction Services , 240 Conn. 658 , 692 A.2d 803 (1997), overruled the defendant's objection and granted the plaintiff's petition for enforcement. In its order overruling the defendant's objection, the court concluded that "[t]he evidence submitted by the department supports the request for the records which are the subject of the subpoena." The defendant filed a motion to reargue and for reconsideration, which the court denied. This appeal followed.

The defendant claims that the plaintiff failed to make a sufficient factual showing that the subpoenaed records were related to a complaint under investigation, as required by § 52-146 o . Specifically, he argues that "[t]he [plaintiff] did not demonstrate and the trial court did not find that the records sought by [the department] in this case are reasonably related to a complaint as required by ... § 52-146 o (b)(3)." He contends that the plaintiff was required to make a showing as to the nature of his investigation by presenting evidence as to what "the suspected 'fraudulent activity' actually was" and "how the records [he] was seeking would shed any light on the unspecified 'fraudulent activity.' " We disagree.

We begin by setting forth the standard of review and legal principles that guide our analysis. Where a party asserts that the facts found were insufficient to support the trial court's legal conclusion, the issue presents a mixed question of law and fact to which we apply plenary review. Centrix Management Co., LLC v. Valencia , 132 Conn.App. 582 , 586, 33 A.3d 802 (2011). Under *260 the plenary standard of review, we must decide whether the court's conclusions are legally and logically correct and supported by the facts in the record. Id., at 586-87, 33 A.3d 802 ; Winchester v. McCue , 91 Conn.App. 721 , 726, 882 A.2d 143 , cert. denied, 276 Conn. 922 , 888 A.2d 91 (2005).

Section 52-146 o (a) prohibits physicians from disclosing patient records without patient consent. Subsection (b) provides four exceptions to that rule. As relevant here, the statute does not require consent for the release of medical records "to the Commissioner of Public Health for records of a patient of a physician, surgeon or health care provider in connection with an investigation of a complaint, if such records are related to the complaint ...." General Statutes § 52-146 o (b)(3).

Our Supreme Court's decision in Edelstein v. Dept. of Public Health & Addiction Services , supra, 240 Conn. 658 , 692 A.2d 803 , informs our analysis of the issues raised on appeal. 7 In Edelstein , the Department of Public Health and Addiction Services received a complaint from a health insurer regarding a physician who allegedly had submitted several false claims for reimbursement to the health insurer and wrongfully caused the insurer to reimburse the physician for services that the insurance policy did not cover. Id., at 660, 692 A.2d 803 . The department began an investigation into the physician's billing practices and, in connection with *475 that investigation, issued a subpoena duces tecum for patient medical records. Id. The physician filed an application to quash the department's subpoena on the ground that the records were privileged under § 52-146 o . Id., at 661, 692 A.2d 803 . The trial court ultimately denied the application to quash on the ground that the records *261 were not privileged under that section. Id. Our Supreme Court agreed with the physician that § 52-146 o covered the patient records, but affirmed the trial court's denial of the application to quash. It reasoned that "the exception contained in § 52-146 o (b)(3) applies to the medical records sought in the present case and requires that the [physician] disclose these records to the department." Id., at 670, 692 A.2d 803 .

As in Edelstein , the plaintiff in the present case has proven that the subpoenaed records fell within the exception of § 52-146 o (b)(3). 8 The facts of this case establish a clear connection between the complaint under investigation and the subpoenaed records. The subpoena was written on department letterhead, specifically, that of the practitioner licensing and investigations section of the healthcare quality and safety branch of the department. The subpoena stated that it was being issued pursuant to § 19a-14(a)(10), a statute that explicitly gives the department the authority to issue subpoenas in connection with investigations. See footnote 3 of this opinion. Boulware testified that the defendant was under investigation for fraudulent billing practices, an investigation prompted by a referral from the Office of the Attorney General of a complaint by *262 Verisk, and that the department subpoenaed only the defendant's patient records that related to that investigation. At the hearing, the trial court offered the defendant's counsel an opportunity to challenge this evidence through cross-examination of Boulware, and the defendant declined to do so. Accordingly, from the evidence presented, we are not persuaded by the defendant's claim that the plaintiff "failed completely to enunciate any relationship" between the subpoenaed records and the complaint. On the basis of this evidence, we conclude that the plaintiff satisfied the requirements of § 52-146 o (b)(3). 9

The judgment is affirmed.
