I value my personal rights over that of making a doctors job easier.
It might make her/his treatment of you more accurate. Now come on, guys, do you really think they'll set this up with no security? I participate in a statewide electronic immunization registry, and there are all sorts of safeguards built into the system.

You mean like all the safeguards so your identity cannot be stolen????
Ever hear of HIPPA? It's not all about confidentiality. It's suppose to make it easier for health care providers and health care payors (insurance, medical assistance) to access your health records. Ever hear of EHR (electronic health records)? Both have been around for years.
There's a guy in the Oval Office that you don't like so all of a sudden you're getting 'informed'. LOL You're a few years to late with this info!
Please provide links to the comments where you blasted the Bush Administration for spying on Americans in violation of the law.
Thank God Bush is gone, so why compare?
What Bush did was wrong, so why compare Obama to it?
Obama is change.
Obama needs to show us that change.
To simply be better than Bush is still failure, as it takes very little to be better than Bush. Obama is suppose to do great things......Obama is the wonder child, the messiah, the one.
Well it's a perfect opportunity for all the politicians to get in their pork and power grabs.
Did you see all the half held back grins in Washington as the gavels fall? Who has smiles on their faces when you just spent 1 trillion on the credit card? Who has smiles when you are in the midst of the worst economic crisis in decades?

You will not have the CHOICE with this law...you cannot opt out.
Are you opposed to this intrusion into our privacy or is it different now that a guy you like is in the WH?

How do you know you can't opt out? You can opt out of the Colorado immunization registry, which, BTW, sounds a lot more secure than the credit card companies!

Here's the deal. Your medical information is and has been shared with other health care providers/labs/radiology depts/anyone involved in your health care, health care payors, pharmacys, disability insurers, workman's comp and life insurance companys for years. Nothing new there except you apparently didn't know it was happening.
If someone else pays for all or part of your health care, they have and have had access to your medical records. DONE DEAL.
At this time, all health care providers have already implemented Electronic Health Records, are in the process of doing so or have a date to start. DONE DEAL.
You can opt out of having your care made available to insurance companys by paying cash for your health care. You can opt out of your health care provider sharing your health information with another health care provider by only going to one and refusing referrals, consults, surgery, prescriptions and diagnostic tests of any type.
You cannot opt out of electronic health records.
