Ernie,

Electronic medical record keeping is another little talked about "reform".

That may not be such a great thing when you consider that twice in the past 3 years the medical records have been hacked and stolen from UC Berkley and USC. And then just this morning in the paper was an article where some fool that works for Kaiser had left a portable hard drive in his car with over 15,000 Californians medical records on it and someone had stolen it. They figure that every person who attended either of the colleges or ever had medical attention at either of their medical facilities now has their whole life history including how they paid for anything in the hands of people that could use it for identity theft.
