HIPAA

The Hipa Law was not intended for family members especially children who are 18 years of age and still live under their parents roof to start making their own decisions in their health care needs. An 18 year old who is still in high school should not be in charge of their medical needs. My son had infection that was contagious but since HIPAA was calling the shots I had no idea what the blank was going on.. After a number of calls finally they told me my son could sign a release allowing me to know what the infection was.

This law was intended to protect individuals from outside sources like insurance companies and employers from invading ones privacy not for parents. I pay the co-payment, I buy the meds and I can't know what infection my child has..

This needs to change. It's time legislatures change this law.

Super Bowl

Wow I can't believe I haven't posted in so long... Working three jobs does that to a person. From now on, I am going to make time to post.

Can you believe the Steelers are going to another Super Bowl? I can. Their a great team... It's good that all of Steeler Nation are behind Ben... Go read my Facebook note. I was behind him from the beginning.

Go Steelers and take home a seven for seven.
