Most medical office receptionist don't know the legal basis for their request--because there is none. If a doctor refuses service for that reason, he has an ethics complaint in the mail the same day (Medical Board). One smart doctor I know takes photos of his patients for their file--that's all they need. Taking on storage of state documents raises the level of exposure for lawsuits if a case of identity theft should occur.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37798047.post-37950878009704186232009-09-29T13:10:46.802-04:002009-09-29T13:10:46.802-04:00I believe the best ID would be an electronic passp...I believe the best ID would be an electronic passport, which you would have to open, for it to be scanned (say, a foil cover preventing RF emissions to reach a chip inside). A small photo would transfer into scanner along with your name and receptionist would be able to positively identify you.<br />Then we could reach the level of security the same as ... common key.<br />It's quite strange we're still not there, despite all hype.Sergey Zakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14673913504861590344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37798047.post-13223961576959493212009-09-23T12:29:46.561-04:002009-09-23T12:29:46.561-04:00I have had the same experience for the last 20 yea...I have had the same experience for the last 20 years of so.

Irony is, they did not ask me for my ID when I stopped by to grab a copy of my sons medical records two weeks later. Spoke to my wife about my experience (she works in health insurance) and she thought it most likely had to do more with insurance fraud than anything else.<br /><br />Just my two cents.<br /><br />bugbearBugbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11115777625496236874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37798047.post-23992952692623128352009-09-22T09:27:46.528-04:002009-09-22T09:27:46.528-04:00This certainly sounds irresponsible to be scanning...This certainly sounds irresponsible to be scanning (and probably storing!)
