The reality is that the former Bush adminsitration called for a stufdy
to lessen the costs of health care by systemizing an el;ectronic billing
system for insurance companies so that only one code book and one set of
diagnosis values would be used, thus streamlinging the medical insurance
business. In comes the bureaucrats, saying "Ah! but what about
privacy???" Need we remind you that those people were Democrats? Like I
said, I have a very close friend, a well known health care lobbyist, who
worked in the HEW Dept during the Reagan years who was in on the
initiative...What started out as a cost cutting effort turned into a
fisco...it's all there in the facts...just Google Hisotry of HIPAA....

Yeah, to hell with privacy. We don't need it.
