Why is it so dangerous to have your medical history online and digital, because many can hack it, now why is that so important?
Well I can give you many reasons,,,they can lie in it, they can rewrite it, they can manipulate your medications or they can diagnose you with something you do not have, like a mental illness. Or how about violent tendencies or giving you false notes your doc would act on, like cancer results from your lab? Or any results from your lab can be screwed with,,changed or invented.
Having access to your medical history gives someone a great power over you, the same power as with your financial situation.
This is why everyone should request copies of their medical history preferably just as you leave, and if you do not have it, ask for a complete copy of it, if not,,, tell them you will have a FOIA (freedom of information act) done and be sure to ask for docs notes this is where all the good stuff is. The dirt so to speak..
So all you good Ti's out there make sure this is high on your list, and one other thing the son of a bitches do,,, They lie up the ass, they lie about everything to cover their ass and they lie for the money you could bring in as a patient and the file is considered a legal document so what ever they say is correct unless you contest it,,, if you find something in your file, you know is wrong,,, write a letter to the person who has the file and request your letter be added to your file with your corrections and why. Make sure it is a good letter too. Professional. Written well.
They are not god, nor all knowing, nor even to be respected unless they earn it. I have had several of these instances happen to me.. don't let this happen to you.
Thought I would add this as well.
NBC4: Fake Medical Equipment Scandal Ran Rampant – WhistleblowerYesterday
Summary: According to a whistleblower lawsuit in California, a group of hospitals and medical hardware distributors recruited doctors to push workers' compensation patients to have spinal surgeries done at facilities that overcharged for operations and medical devices, which were allegedly counterfeit in many cases. One whistleblower in the suit claims the scheme "bilked the state's workers compensation system out of millions and put thousands at risk."
