What the Sam Hill are Frist and Hillary doing?

I caught a snippet of some sort of teamup between the two.

3. Promoting the medical records bill which creates a standardized system

to shift paper records to electronic records. It's a great bill and would dramatically reduce the amount of error in the medical industry. The health care industry really wants Congress to pass federal legislation to speed along the process.

4. Thanks for the info. I'm all for bipartisan efforts if the cause is good

sounds alright.

5. pardon my cynicism, but . . .

a database of everyone's complete medical records would be a goldmine for insurance companies looking to deny health and/or life coverage, for employers looking to screen out potential absenteeism for health reasons, for drug companies looking to refine their marketing right down to the individual and, I'm quite sure, for a myriad of other nefarious purposes I can't even imagine . . . is that a good trade-off? . . .
