  2016-4-4-BOE!--Scanning and Sending Medical Records through Emails!

  by Atlantis in

  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.

  I second the above. Your are a valued source of insider information.

  Another possible source of odd language: maybe this was originally in another language and somebody ran it through google translate. I've seen some real howlers produced that way.

  Is this in the United States? Medical records are protected under HIPPA, failure to comply with the law can lead to all sorts of trouble. Each and every person who has medical information in those files must have given them written consent to share that information with each and every person or organization they share it with. So each individual has to have signed a consent form to allow the secretary to handle the information. They must also have signed a consent form for whoever he's going to turn the files over to when needed. They also have to have signed a consent form for each and every individual or organization they intend to give the information to.

  This could easily lead to massive lawsuits.

  Suppose I ought to introduce myself.....

  i've left a couple of semi-"humorous" remarks, but not yet said a proper hello....but firstly thank you, to all, for this site and all its comments.i have been lurking on this site for 4-5 years, awake for 5-6 years and seriously fading for the last 4 years.

  i am now "out" and widely considered "out" by the congregation but due being very cautious and playing a very long game, (and having a wife who understand the repercussions of blowing the whistle on the few viewpoints i have discussed with her) i have not been df'd of da'd.

  this forum has been a crutch and guide as well as helping me wake - and the humour many on here use has been a welcome relief.

  Welcome, great screen name. I've always thought that movie is a good allegory for escaping the Watchtower.

  I will admit that I don't know much about English law. I am generally familiar with how US courts work, and the basis of a lot of our law can be found in English common law.

  The big issue here is did he really commit fraud. In US Courts the truth is an absolute defense. If he committed fraud, they didn't slander him when they said he committed fraud. It I was representing the plaintiff the first questions I'd ask would be "Were the police called? What proof do you have that there was fraud? If you did not call the police, why not? Did the victim of the fraud call the police, or sue for damages?"

  This could be an interesting one to watch, if the DF'd him on the heresay of a couple of other people, he may have a case.

  whereas cookies can identify the previous web page the visitor last opened.

  Everybody should go to a pornsite for a minute before visiting the WTBS website. That would give them something to investigate.

  I've worked in real estate. They'll be doing well if they can sell that thing for what it cost to build. It has no appeal whatsoever, it will go for a low price because anybody who can afford something nicer won't buy it. If you're in business, you want a building that will make people want to come in. Business like CVS would probably build something to their own design. And if it sells a year from now, everybody in town is going to call "the old Kingdom Hall."

  Legally corrupt or morally corrupt? There's a difference. I think they may be brushing up against the legal line on a lot of things, I don't believe they've crossed it.

  Morally, they have a lot to answer for: false prophecy, harboring child molesters, lack of financial transparency for starters.

  Lawsuit losses do not warrant trying to hide money in off shore accounts. The potential losses from lawsuits measure in millions. The WTBS has assets measured in billions. Unless they get much bigger, lawsuit payouts are not going to be that big a problem. Attempting to hide assets from the courts is a federal felony. I used to work for some one who tried it and ended up in prison for that AND tax fraud.

  You launder money when you have it via criminal activity. I have yet to see that the WTBS has done anything illegal.

  Why would the WTBS bother with offshore accounts? They already have tax exempt status. The R&F don't seem to care where the money goes. I don't see who they need to hide it from.
