Barack Obama wants to know all about your sex life, and I mean all of it:
Are you sexually active? If so, with one partner, multiple partners or same-sex partners?Cardiologists do not need this kind of information. Neither do ophthalmologists. Or neurosurgeons.Be ready to answer those questions and more the next time you go to the doctor, whether its the dermatologist or the cardiologist and no matter if the questions are unrelated to why youre seeking medical help. And you can thank the Obama health law.
This is nasty business, says New York cardiologist Dr. Adam Budzikowski. He called the sex questions insensitive, stupid and very intrusive. He couldnt think of an occasion when a cardiologist would need such information but he knows hell be pushed to ask for it.Doctors are being financially pressured to violate your privacy:
Doctors and hospitals who dont comply with the federal governments electronic-health-records requirements forgo incentive payments now; starting in 2015, theyll face financial penalties from Medicare and Medicaid. The Department of Health and Human Services has already paid out over $12.7 billion for these incentives.And if you think your information will be kept confidential, you're an idiot:Dr. Richard Amerling, a nephrologist and associate professor at Albert Einstein Medical College, explains that your medical record should be a story created by you and your doctor solely for your treatment and benefit. But the new requirements are turning it into an interrogation, and the data will not be confidential.
Lack of confidentiality is what concerned the New York Civil Liberties Union in a 2012 report. Electronic medical records have enormous benefits, but with one click of a mouse, every piece of information in a patients record, including the social history, is transmitted, disclosing too much.Just think- the IRS will know all of your sex life. And you know how clean they are:The social-history questions also include whether youve ever used drugs, including IV drugs. As the NYCLU cautioned, revealing a patients past drug problem, even if it was a decade ago, risks stigma.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS), already under fire for its targeting of conservative organizations and monitoring of Americans online activities, is now being accused of stealing the medical records of over 10 million Americans.Secure, you argue? Wrong.A class action lawsuit filed in California in March claims that in the course of serving a warrant for tax records related to a single former employee of a southern California business, IRS agents stole more than 60,000,000 medical records of more than 10,000,000 Americans. The agents did this in spite of the fact that such a seizure was not authorized by the warrant, was irrelevant to their investigation, and violated federal law, the suit says.
According to the lawsuit, on March 11, 2011, the IRS conducted a raid on the corporate headquarters of the California company. The plaintiffs allege that the raid was unnecessary because the agents admitted the company was not under investigation a confession backed up by both internal IRS records and the search warrant.

Why?
just make the data useless - lie to them
about everything
I had sex with 8000 women last year
(and boy am I tired)
I want to know where the doctors are who will simply say that this violates their oath and they refuse to do it. Where is the AMA? It has been suggested that doctors keep two sets of records.
I wonder if “Not much, but you can go ____ yourself” is on multiple-choice list.
Married. 26 years. One woman.
Pretty boring, eh, Barry?
I had sex with 8000 women last year
(and boy am I tired)
But it’s a good kind of tired.
My response?
“I’m 75 years old, what’cha expect from me?”
You first, Barry
And don’t forget the dead lovers from Rev Wright’s church
/sarcasm, but probably not for much longer.
So, only once today huh?
I don’t have a sex life.
Am I going to get a “visit?”
Two sets of records for what?
And thinking Americans want to know all about Cupcake’s sex life. We want to know if he frittered away those teen years humping other like-minded males.
Why did he never have a girlfriend? Was it that he was high on drugs most of the time, or was it something more sinister like his appreciation of young men and the true gladiator ethic.
One can only imagine what he pursued during his good ole college days. While normal student men pursued coeds, he pursued other guys. Even In the White Hut he must have developed a method whereby he gets them in after hours like Kennedy secreted young beautiful women. It’s easier to disguise the reasons that young men visit Skeeter after hours. I’m certain that Moochell doesn’t care. She’s busy with bananas and carrots.
That’s our plan....lie. What...are they going to make me prove I’m “gay?”
...and no men or boys.
How about we hear about his?
These questions will be right there beside the ones asking if you’re non-Hispanic, Hispanic,...
