I've beat my head against the wall for two years trying to explain HIPAA to people, but the brain dead mass just won't listen. Incidentally, Stacy put up a facebook page. It's at Stacy's Facebook Page Pass it on! We need all the information we can get out there.

Cool! The more the public understands what the actual current situation is, and the lameness of the ObamaCare “solutions”, the better the chance that they’ll vote to dump the whole thing.

And I’ve had the same frustration as you with seeing people get shafted as a result of the unwillingness of anyone in the insurance field, or employers, to tell them about their HIPAA rights. In my case, the standard application for individual coverage contained a section where you indicate that you want “shall issue” coverage if they decline the application. The insurance company declined coverage then, when I called asking where the alternate coverage was, claimed they hadn’t noticed I’d requested it and had since lost the application. Lots of games being played.
