MODERATORS
What isn’t covered by HIPPA?
I think that they are trying to use "Medicaid fraud" as a backdoor to access medical records. I mean, the AG is specifically saying otherwise but that's the loophole they will use to get these records.
Anything these fascists don't like while they're running their theocracy.
Reason I moved my family out of that y'all queda nightmare.
How did you escape?
I've fantasized, but I have no idea how, where or what country will even take poor queer people
Not them but I went to school in blue state and when I graduated I sold everything that I couldn't fit in a backpack. Got a job in a city, took the bus there, found an apartment on craigslist on the bus ride.
It was rough for a few months.
I read that as meaning Missouri specifically.
Best I can think of is applying to join a literal commune within the same country.
edit (20 hrs later): I forgot and used old terminology there. I don't know who'll see this, but the right term nowadays is "intentional community."
You can escape the south without leaving the country.
HIPAA is federal.
HIPAA protections are federal. Planned Parenthood won’t just turn over records that are protected by HIPAA.
It's funny that you think fascist give a shit about federal law, not like that don't have a history of ignoring federal statutes when they disagree with something.
