Hey, when the government completely takes over healthcare and has all of our information, it'll make it easier to decide who'll get denied various procedures in the name of cost effectiveness. Don't we want the government to be efficient?
Why does the term "death panel" keep coming to mind?
And if I say no?
Odie - I may be wrong but I don't think you'll have a choice because the records belong to your doctor. I'll do some checking on that question.
And it's all for our own good, right? It's a very slippery slope we are on, Adrienne.

If the government wants the records, it will be able to get them once the government completes the take over of the health care system. Of course, from the government's perspective, that isn't a bug, it's a feature.
Jim - we've been on that slope for so long we've almost hit bottom.
Bunkerville - yep. Leaving it blank is telling.
Mark - yep! Bug meet feature. How about Facebook wanting you to put up medical stuff? Weird!
Congratulations :)
