[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 212738"] HIPAA wasn't intended to be a Children's Rights type of act, as far as I'm aware. It was intended to ensure patient confidentiality. The problem is that it overreached in a way I think wasn't intended and it needs to be revisited and corrected. So far, I have never encountered any problems with my children's health care because of HIPAA. The only thing I've encountered is that Tony (Wynter's dad) had to submit a letter to the insurance he carries on Wynter saying that the insurance company can talk to me. Of course that is stupid. Wynter is a minor and I have custody. But, it was easily rectified - although it shouldn't have had to happen to begin with. These are cases where we need to make our voices heard. Contact your state and federal reps. Write letters. Take action. That's how we create change and fix problems. We have to use our voices and make sure we are heard. [/QUOTE]
