This gun question began appearing on our intake forms for the primary care physicians about 10 years ago, and was prompted by the AMA's desire to re-frame gun violence as a public health issue. A clever subversion. When I was asked this question, I refused to answer. An answer, one way or another became a condition that had to be fulfilled in order to get medical service. In itself, that was bad enough, but HIPAA came along and gave everyone a false sense of security and privacy. I found out first hand that this is a lie. I would urge everyone to look up 'Business Partnership Agreement' within the context of HIPAA. Also look up a company called Trover Solutions. If your healthcare institution has partnered with these guys, then Trover Solutions HAS your medical records. Further, they can hand them to the next party (the .gov?) under the same BPA rules. You'll never know. <br />Here's the takehome message: Never, ever, ever tell ANY healthcare provider ANYTHING you would not want the government to know.

Also, by spewing that nonsense on this blog you just lied on a government document and falsification of a government document carries a damn stiff felony penalty, with fines and serious jail time, and is a slam-dunk for any prosecutor willing to take such a case before a jury.

Here's hoping nothing ever comes of that, as falsification of a government document carries a damn stiff felony penalty, with fines and serious jail time, and is a slam-dunk for any prosecutor willing to take such a case before a jury. Usually such cases are made against people who work with government paperwork, such as state purchasing agents or administrators of state agencies, but who is to say that this existing criminal statute might not be applied in this case?mikeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875483485290838207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-54541645154332140772016-05-07T21:11:28.497-04:002016-05-07T21:11:28.497-04:00On the medical side, I am required to fill out tha...On the medical side, I am required to fill out that form but I am neatly handwriting below that question "Provider refuses to ask."
