Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80262721 Next, HIPAA doesn't apply to everyday conversations. Finally, you are stupid if you think just because someone asks you something that you are obliged to answer. Tell them: Would you like to know the size of my penis, also? When they look there in shock, continue by saying: right, because somethings are meant to be kept private - like my personal medical information. HIPAA -- my bad. You're right ... there's no requirement to respond when asked. But if you're employed "at will" your employer can legally fire you for refusing to answer their questions, even if medically related. These laws such as what SC is proposing would protect against such things, as far as the clotshot goes. Fuck 'em. You don't want to work for that employer anyway, do you? Let them fire you. Jobs are a plenty right now.  Yeah, that may be the only way out of this mess ... people would have to do that in great numbers. |

Business associates of health care providers and plans. These provide billing, claims processing, or other services. This leaves out many others who may obtain medical information about you and your family. Some examples of organizations that are not covered by HIPAA are life insurance companies, employers, school districts, law enforcement agencies, and many state and municipal agencies. Therefore, the medical information you disclose in your life insurance application, or medical information you give to your child's school, is not protected under HIPAA. If you let your friend know that you have a particular medical condition, and that friend passes that information to someone else, there is no HIPAA violation because HIPAA does not apply to your friend. So you see that HIPAA does NOT PROTECT YOU as it only applies to healthcare entities and their associates. [link to www.legalzoom.com (secure)] |

"A bill has been introduced in the South Carolina House that would penalize and even send someone to jail if they ask the COVID-19 vaccination status of a person before entering their public, nonprofit or private entity. The bill would make it a misdemeanor if the person were found guilty and they would be fined no more than $14,000 or put in jail for no more than one year, or both." How are employers getting away with it? I thought employers could not ask any questions about health records. But yet they keep pushing, wanting every employee to sign into okta and state their vaccine status. I will not. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 4812794 United States01/26/2022 02:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | At the doctor's office, don't sign the privacy form if you want your medical history kept private, they use it to trick you. I did sign it because I thought it was about privacy, wrong my doctor couldn't get my MRI and test from the hospital, my medical record from brain surgery and other problem were not available. You would be shocked at how much all things are linked together, I had to sign for my mail after his until I had to go back to the doctor and went ahead and signed it. I not fully open even now because I don't give them as much information as they ask for. Even signing up online is part of it, your e-mail is part of the of it, it is one huge collection of information of your whole life. Quoting: hankie At the stores when you pay for your groceries and products of any kind they record it, this also goes into a computer, now they are after your DNA, don't do this, don't do at home test and send it in this is DNA by trickery, they are making DNA databases of all the people on earth or as many as they can trick. All of this has to do with money and power of control. They can go belly up before they do more to me, I find them rotten to the core.   . |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 81528432 Australia01/26/2022 03:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why do we need bills for preventing things that are illegal in the first place...? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81528432 Oh wait I get it. This is the government's way of making sure it is the government that decides what our rights are and are not. Not inalienable God given rights anymore. But government granted. So they throw the conservatives a bone now and then. And the conservatives accept the premise that rights are government given. (And can be taken away later, when the government decides it is more opportune to do so.) I see. Very clever dr evil. |
