[quote=Anonymous]I'm trying to understand the rationale for this. Expanding wellness programs, and including a stick to make "voluntary" disclosure more likely, seems to be the motivation. But then the part about removing GINA privacy protections from information received through these wellness programs seems to be based on an intent to monetize people's private genetic and health information for the benefit of health care companies. It seems like someone had an idea, wrote it down, and didn't think more than a half-second about the potential results or problems with any of it. [/quote]
