Do you want your medical records sent out of the USA for processing? ?

Medical records are often outsourced from medical facilities for completion. Do you approve when the records are sent to India or Pakistan for processing? Would you like to have congress enact a law stating records are not to leave the USA for processing when we are fighting a war on terrorism in these countries?

Pakistan is allied to the USA in the war on terror.
India is not involved.
Your reasons for not sending medical records out of country for prosessing are invalid.
Records are sent to save money, if you are happy to pay more for your medical insurance and for your copays then go ahead and campaign. You will find that for many Americans, cash is the bottom line. That’s why Walmart can sell imported trash and Americans still shop there.
In the meantime, do what you have to to make sure your records are correct, proof read everything yourself and point out any errors to your doctors. Expect at least 1-3 errors per doccument.
NO WAY! and a lot of our outsourcing is happening because of our new immigration laws. The Government and the people who support these new laws try to make things better for the US, but in-fact end up making things worst. We have a farm labor crisis and Congress needs to act because we are in danger of losing control of our food supply—many of our nation’s farm families will fail, U.S. farms will foreclose and will continue to move labor-intensive agriculture production offshore.
SAVE U.S. FARMS AND HELP PROTECT THE SAFETY AND CERTAINTY OF OUR FOOD SUPPLY.

The question really shouldnt include the whole war on terror. The question should be simply do you want your medical records outsourced to other countries where our privacy laws have no meaning.
Lol, are you saying that an act of terrorism can be planned and executed by simply having access to my medical records? Golly, what will they think of next?
