What does HIPAA mean? Why does it seem to be implemented differently at each medical office you go to? Can they refuse to give you your medical information in a timely manner? What MUST they give you and when? Can you be charged to get it? What can a medical provider never do with your medical information? I caregive for my mom and am in doctor's offices and hospitals frequently. I am appalled by the documents I am required to sign and how they vary from one office to another. It is also a problem of staff training. I recently was asked to sign a form that would give permission for the office to give out my contact info and other information to essentially anyone they wanted (3rd party affiliates, doctors, billing companies and others was the phrasing). They grouped the doctor under there and said if we do not sign the doctor cannot call me even about results and the staff cannot call me about appointments. Is that allowed? My guest helped draft the law that became HIPAA here in the United States and is the leading expert on its implementation for both medical practitioners and those Business Associates that do business with them. If you have medical data then you will want to listen to this episode and understand your rights and what you need to do to make sure you can access your data when and where you need it.

In Forex News TodayThe dollar is not getting much respect these days and nothing seems to be able to prop it up. The US currency is getting pushed around with little regard. With the subprime mortgage house of cards falling down and billions of dollars leaving top financial banks - there is an uneasy feeling of crisis; the oil price is approaching the $100/barrel mark, gold continues to advance, many equities are taking a reality check, and jobs are only starting to get wiped out.
