has anyone heard about this?
that really sucks.
lots of dubs are talking.
Does HIPA still apply if your dead?
Yes. It is one of many laws protecting privacy.
If there is information about AIDS, HIV testing, genetics, substance abuse or mental health, then even more laws come into play.
If TMZ obtained info from a healthcare provider, that individual will probably go to prison on federal charges, lose her license, and get sued.
But it is perfectly legal for people not subject to HIPAA (friends, for example) to disclose anything they want.
...what would they be?
i booked a double appointment so that she wouldn't be rushed.
i explained that i'd been brought up in the jw's and woken up to what a load of shite it was.
i explained that they have changed the blood card and that the elders in the cong are being told to effectively force people into signing it.
Is there any way people could appear to be complying with the borganization's edict to sign it, but really not? Like signing it the wrong way, or having a trusted friend sign your signature and be a witness to the fact that you did not sign it? And have a letter on file in your home stating you did not sign it and were only presenting the pretend document to get the cult off your back? Sign it "Scooby Doo"?
I personally would be very worried that somehow the no blood card would get enforced.
anyhow i got to thinking today about my days in the borg and the resolutions that would intermittently be made in the announcements for co visit expenses, sending a donation to society www fund etc.
my point is that while i was in (almost thirty two years) i never once saw anyone put up their hand to vote against a resolution that the body of elders proposed.
on a couple of occasions i heard a few hushed murmurs but i never saw one person vote against.
I remember a resolution to change the weeknight meeting nights. One MS worked those evenings, and he seconded the motion.
I asked why and was told he could see jehoopla's spirit wanted the change to happen, so he wanted to support it.
I believe he did not attend the weeknight meetings after the change. lol
i was always under the impression that only "licensed" persons had the authority to do this.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
2016-4-4-boe scanning and sending medical records through emails!.
.. this is the last paragraph of the main body of the boe without the top and bottom, which revealed the congregation and information which could expose our source.. .. "therefore, brothers, i appeal to you to make sure that a copy of the new add for every publisher is kept in alphabetical order, perhaps using an a-z filing system to expedite it's location and so that it can be kept neat, clean and legible for scanning and emailing for up to 4 years, after which a new copy should be completed.
For some reason this forum has a lot of posts misinterpreting HIPAA, even after I posted a direct link proving the law does not apply to religions.
