[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, OP. Despite all the "privacy" protections supposedly in place, these databases are WIDE open for abuse. When did I ever say it was okay to have my private information made available to any physician, or his/her assistant, or receptionist, to peruse and perhaps share with an enemy (such as the stalker who harassed and bullied me for years). Don't tell me it doesn't happen. Of course it does. I would have *never* given my okay for this information to be shared on a platform where any nosy person who wants to look at it can look at it. When did i I say it was okay to set up my information on one of these databases?! Would someone please explain how this is even legal, given our privacy laws?[/quote] The US doesn't have much in the way of general privacy laws, and HIPAA errs in favor of making medical records available to providers on the basis that most care about their lives more than their medical privacy.[/quote]
