Fw: Patient Privacy Rights

[Guest guest]

Dear Friend,

Do you want to control who can access and use your medical information? You

won't unless you act today.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD

Tell Congress you want to control who can use and access your medical

information

Congress is moving rapidly to build a national electronic health system to

improve healthcare, reduce errors and save money. But, without ironclad

privacy protections written into legislation, this system will expose your

most personal information to employers, insurance companies, consumer

reporting agencies, and more.

I just sent a letter telling my Representative that I want to control who

can see and use my private medical records and I encourage you to do the

same.

View and send a message telling your Representative you want your medical

privacy

Thank you!
