I wrote Senator Gramm about HIPAA. That was the biggest scam on the American people. I get a good laugh every time I go the the pharmacy or hospital now since that passed. Yes, please stand back so you can't hear about Joe Blow's Proctozone cream for his hemorrhoids or the poor nurse now playing hide the charts.
People just refuse to learn in this country. When government claims they want to protect you from something they really want to attack that which they claim they will protect you from.
Not sure how deep you ventured into HIPAA but those regulations also allowed for the transfer of medical info to INTERNATIONAL institutions. Whenever a government document uses those words that mean United Nations run institutions. For now, they claim, there will be no personal identifiers. Helping to stop Commie Care also aides in stopping International Commie Care.
