A big LIE told by a LYING LIAR
There, fixed
Oh, and you will get free death panels too.
Nothing is promised until a bill is committed to a vote.
They’ll all be “shovel ready”.....
Bull$hit what a LIAR!
IS THIS BILL A VIOLATION OF HIPAA LAWS?
“You Lie!”
You lie !
Not familiar enough to say. What do you think is the HIPAA provision that is going to get bumped aside?
“This proposal adds almost a decade of solvency to Medicare,” Obama said in a visit to a senior center.
wow....I bet that had them high-fiveing and doing cartwheels in the aisles /sarc
LIAR!!!!!!!!
He is there to put the positive spin on death panels.
On the other hand, they do all live in Cleveland.....
Now, now, Bummer might actually be correct that’s what the draft bill looks like now. That doesn’t mean it’s going to stay like that after five minutes.
Horse Manure!!!!!!!!
Why would I believe a Chicago mobster has any concern whatsoever for individual citizens, except as they are able to contribute to the growth of the mob.
The Privacy and Security Rules apply only to covered entities. Individuals, organizations, and agencies that meet the definition of a covered entity under HIPAA must comply with the Rules’ requirements to protect the privacy and security of health information and must provide individuals with certain rights with respect to their health information. If an entity is not a covered entity, it does not have to comply with the Privacy Rule or the Security Rule.
A Covered Entity is one of the following:
A Health Care Provider A Health Plan A Health Care Clearinghouse
This includes providers such as:
•Doctors
•Clinics
•Psychologists
•Dentists
•Chiropractors
•Nursing Homes
•Pharmacies
...but only if they transmit any information in an electronic form in connection with a transaction for which HHS has adopted a standard.
This includes:
•Health insurance companies
•HMOs
•Company health plans
•Government programs that pay for health care, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and the military and veterans health care programs
This includes entities that process nonstandard health information they receive from another entity into a standard (i.e., standard electronic format or data content),
Koolaid for everyone!
re: “This proposal adds almost a decade of solvency to Medicare,”
Wow! That’s the best he can come up with? What about the seniors who are expecting to live past that decade? BTW, isn’t Medicare already pretty much insolvent?
