Back when they mandated health records be converted to sharable electronic media ...I decided to stop going to the doctor at all.

Some how this does not surprise me, does not seem like new “news,” and wondering when the underground medical field starts to take hold...

The government has no need for my health records or anybody elses. Enough is enough already.

Its unfortunate that the Government’s intrusiveness has left so many people feeling vulnerable in the medical system.

Even more unfortunate that all these so called mandates aimed at controlling the cost perhaps deliberately ignore the core problem behind the health system causing its uncontrolled cost explosion.

Namely the socialization of its payment system. Health-insurance rather its goverment provide or private removes the consumer from the position of caring about the cost of their health care choices.

Auto insurance would have the same effect if it also payed for your car the first time, or replaced it when it suffered form wear and tear.

Its so simple and obvious its hard to beleive our politicians are oblivious to the root cause of our healthcare costs problems.

Obamacare already is in our private files. This spring I went to my doctor & the nurse started talking to me like we were old friends. She was new & I assumed she was just friendly. She asked me if my husband was a hunter. Then started asking me what kind of guns and how many we have. I had said my husband does hunt & started to say he has lots of guns when I notice she was writing it down. I asked her what she was doing & she explained with the new national medical data base records they had to ask extra questions. I told her it was no business of the government and not to write anything down. She said they want to make sure guns were locked up.... I was so angry, but not as angry as my husband was.
