obamacare wants to “computerize” all medical records
These records won’t be secure. Not only will someone inevitably be able to hack into the system but probably some flunky at the gatekeeping storage facilities will make a few extra bucks by selling the data to private investigators . . . cell phone numbers and records are supposed to be secret but some PIs with insider access can get the data for just a few bucks, and no doubt they’ll be a black market for the medical records too once they go online with so many people having access.
A nit:
It wasn’t obamacare. It was crammed into one of the famous stimulus bills. http://www.jsonline.com/business/104192429.html
It still sux. Important to keep in mind: Your records on paper are vastly more secure that these elctronic ones will ever be.
Those who argue otherwise are idiots and fools. You are trading security and privacy for a bit of convenience if you get hurt while out of town, going to a specialist, etc.
