conspiracy to commit HIPAA violation

Would you trust thousands of low-level Federal bureaucrats and contractors with one-touch access to your private financial and medical information? Under Obamacare you won’t have any choice.
As the Obamacare train-wreck begins to gather steam, there is increasing concern in Congress over something called the Federal Data Services Hub. The Data Hub is a comprehensive database of personal information being established by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement the federally facilitated health insurance exchanges.
The purpose of the Data Hub, according to a June 2013 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, is to provide “electronic, near real-time access to federal data” and “access to state and third party data sources needed to verify consumer-eligibility information.” In these days of secret domestic surveillance by the intelligence community, rogue IRS officials and state tax agencies using private information for political purposes, and police electronically logging every license plate that passes by, the idea of the centralized Data Hub is making lawmakers and citizens nervous.
They certainly should be; the potential for abuse is enormous. The massive, centralized database will include comprehensive personal information such as income and financial data, family size, citizenship and immigration status, incarceration status, social security numbers, and private health information.
It will compile dossiers based on information obtained from the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Veterans Administration, the Office of Personnel Management, the Social Security Administration, state Medicaid databases, and for some reason the Peace Corps. The Data Hub will provide web-based, one-stop shopping for prying into people’s personal affairs.
Not to fear, HHS says, the Data Hub will be completely secure. Really? Secure like all the information that has been made public in the Wikileaks era? These days no government agency can realistically claim that private information will be kept private, especially when it is being made so accessible. Putting everyone’s personal information in once place only simplifies the challenge for those looking to hack into the system.
However, the hacker threat is the least of the Data Hub worries. The hub will be used on a daily basis by so-called Navigators, which according to the GAO are “community and consumer-focused nonprofit groups, to which exchanges award grants to provide fair and impartial public education” and “refer consumers as appropriate for further assistance.” Thousands of such people will have unfettered access to the Data Hub, but there are only sketchy guidelines on how they will be hired, trained and monitored. Given the slap-dash, incoherent way Obamacare is being implemented the prospect for quality control is low. And the Obama administration’s track record of sweetheart deals, no-bid, sole-source contracting and other means of rewarding people with insider access means the Data Hub will be firmly in the hands of trusted White House loyalists.
So if you think the IRS targeting Tea Party groups was bad, just wait for the Obamacare Navigators to be unleashed. “Trust us,” the administration says, no one will abuse the Data Hub. Sure, because that has worked out so well in the past.

conspiracy to commit HIPAA violation
The Obamacare death panel has a constitutional problem
Absolute Rights | 01/19/2015 | Jon E. Dougherty / FR Posted by SleeperCatcher
She was vilified as ignorant, alarmist, extreme and right-wing when former Alaska governor and 2008 vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin tried to tell Americans that yes, the Affordable Care Act – a.k.a. Obamacare – created so-called “death panels.” But of course, she has since been proven correct, even though they are not identified as “death panels” specifically in the language of the law.
President Obama and the Democrats who passed this abomination would never be so politically bold or so politically honest; then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California famously said that Congress would “have to pass the bill so that” Americans “can find out what is in it.” (Excerpt) Read more at absoluterights.com ...
=============================
Obama hired Gruber as the death panel handyman----Zeke Emanuel (Rham's brother) was a key player. All of them itching to serve the Progressive cause. Here's how it worked
Clearly---Gruber was handed the Marxist dream plan FIRST. Then Obama bribed money-hungry Gruber w/ $400,000 hefty tax dollars to build the healthcare model that he and lock-stepping Dems, could sell to gullible Americans.
PROGRESSIVE POISON The so-called "Cadillac tax" was part of the Obama/Gruber conspiracy designed: (1) to destroy wealthy insurance companies..targets of Progressive virulent hatred, and, (2) to deny end-of-life care to the elderly....deplored by Progressive Poisoners in our midst.
Other Progressive Poisons: healthcare rationing, pulling $750 million out of Medicare, death panels...
...and the Marxist Dream Triumphant: decimating intergenerational transfers of wealth (a longtime Progressive bugaboo); grandma/pa's holdings go to the govt---not to you.
=========================================
Gruber delivered Progressive Poison in spades: The preening, duplicitous Gruber---the embodiment of cockamamie far-left thinking---believed it was his moral duty to lie, deceive and collude w/ the US govt......so that these revolting ideas could be imposed on "sub-mental defectives' taking up valuable space in their Utopian America.
Loyal foot-soldier Gruber, in obeisance to the Marxist dream, invented mechanisms to serve Obama's Marxist obsession w/ wealth transfer---as candidate Obama told Joe the Plumber---his plan was to redistribute the wealth:
(1) throwing Americans off affordable health plans
while assuring them they could "keep their plans,"
(2) nationalizing 1/6 of the US economy,
3) installing IPAB's (healthcare rationing--death panels),
(4) decimating intergenerational transfers of wealth a longtime Progressive bugaboo;
via Obamacare, grandma/pa's holdings go to the govt---not to you,
(5) pulling $750 billion out of Medicare (another Progressive irritant---giving the elderly healthcare),
(6) drug-rationing---see death panels,
(8) outright abandoning seniors and the chronically ill,
(9) transferring wealth from healthy young Americans to subsidize healthcare for others.
Obama organized Democrats into a lock-stepping cheerleading squad to force the Progressive Poison down the throats of recalcitrant Americans.
=========================================
NOTE The fraudulent methods used to package Obamacare are a clue as to how Obama was packaged as a candidate----except his handlers effectively papered-over his Progressive Poison.
The Poison Obama administered to Americans when they were duped into complacency.....congratulating themselves for being so great a country---they could elect
Someone I know had all their fellow employees get together and mixed them all up and then sent them in. Boy did management get mad. Why would they get mad if it was anonymous like they said? Well, it wasn’t.. each survey was numbered so they would be able to tell who sent what.
I’ve seen all kinds of anonymous surveys where if you look hard enough, you’ll find unique numbers on them.
HIPAA is one of the most invasive, dangerous acts ever produced. It is the precursor to Obamacare policies, and contrary to how it is explained to patients, it actually enables the government to have all our medical records on the enormous Medicare/Medicaid/CMA computer system, where it can be shared with any medical, government, or insurance entity. It was sold by a lie, just like most government programs. These progressive devils have been part of a long-range plan. They have a nefarious end goal of totalitarianism.
CMS, not CMA.
[ how can they match it up with user data if it is anonymized
An old company of my did “Anonymous” Employee Surveys about management. A week or two passed, and one of the HR weenies asked me why I’d not turned mine in yet.
Think about it.... ]
Makes one think...
Like a consult from a death panel?
Maybe it doesn't matter cuz we are in charge of all that now.
