"Medical students are taught to ask whether there is a gun in the house, ostensibly to use this as a way to remind parents to keep them out of the reach of children. But now this will be part of the medical record that goes online, and hackers might be able to use this information to target certain families. The possibilities are endless. Information is power-- the power to do good but also the power to destroy." Yeah the part I hate that is already happening is that your doctor is gonna ask you in person or on a from, "Is there a firearm in your house"....I've seen this on a medical questionaire when I went to a hearing specialist about 1 1/2 years ago.. it had a "yes" "no" check boxes. I wrote in,
"no firearms but I do keep live rattlesnakes in a box, unless they get out"
I'm still waiting for my insurance carrier to cancel my policy
