This is as predictable as it is disgusting. Not only does the Obama/Kennedy Socialized Health Care plan want working people to pay for those who choose NOT to work or contribute in ANY WAY (including illegal aliens, now OVER 30 million in America), but now Patrick Kennedy even wants to keep secret such disasters as highly communicable diseases, like Sexually Transmitted Diseases. Hide and prevaricate, it's the Kennedy legacy, the Kennedy way.
People Can Opt Out of Listing STDs, Abortions in Gov't-Mandated Electronic Health Records, Patrick Kennedy Says
Monday, September 28, 2009
By Nicholas Ballasy, Video Reporter
(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D.-R.I.) says people will be able to stop doctors from including records of sexually transmitted diseases and abortions in the new national system of Electronic Health Records that was mandated by the stimulus law enacted in February.
The law says that doctors, hospitals and other health care providers must create an Electronic Health Record (EHR) for every American by 2014 or else face deductions in their Medicare payments. The EHRs are supposed to be integrated into a national health care IT system where health-care providers nationwide as well as the government would have the ability to access them when authorized.
“This is totally going to be up to the individual,” Kennedy told CNSNews.com when specifically asked if these EHRs would include any STDs or abortions in a person's medical history.
How much longer does the world have to suffer these insufferably arrogant destroyers of everything GOOD about America??? Utter insanity.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was enacted by the U.S. Congress in 1996. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) website, Title I of HIPAA protects health insurance coverage for workers and their families when they change or lose their jobs. Title II of HIPAA, known as the Administrative Simplification (AS) provisions, requires the establishment of national standards for electronic health care transactions and national identifiers for providers, health insurance plans, and employers. This is intended to help people keep their information private, though in practice it is normal for providers and health insurance plans to require the waiver of HIPAA rights as a condition of service.

The people that vote for these bastards get what they deserve but I feel very sorry for the millions who didn't vote for the scumsucking son of a b!tches.
Is that disgusting law still in effect that prevents a Rape Victim from finding out if the filthy swine that raped them has AIDS....?
WILL WE BE FIGHTING IN THE STREETS SOON, IT SURE LOOKS LIKE IT.

Patrick Kennedy cried his crocodile tears so many times at the funeral, on Larry King .... and all he did was say how great Ted was ... how much his father, Ted "cared".... he blamed his mother's alcoholism on "disease", not his father's serial infidelities. Patrick Kennedy worships his father and this bill he proposes does EXACTLY what Ted Kennedy would have wanted: keep deadly incurable diseases like HIV/AIDS hidden so more and more and more people can contract it.
"Classless"??? Yeah, this legislation is all that and more.

This is old stuff, confidentiality of AIDS has been going on forever.. when in corrections really pissed me off that could not know, we had to treat everyone as though they had it.. it was called universal precautions...
Obama had nothing to do with it..

Thank you for not answering the question. If you want to provide links to actual news organizations, I'd love to see them. We already argued this subject ad nauseum in another thread here.
AFAIK, HIV patient records are ALREADY secret, so I don't know why you're getting all weepy about this "development."

A Blog called Technorati quotes the Washington Times... so it has to be true
