How hard is it to put up a privacy fence?

I'm thinking of putting a privacy fence up around my back yard. My yard is so large we'd rather do the job ourselves to save on the cost. How difficult is it?

it depends on your ability to dig holes 3 feet deep and ten feet apart, mix and pour concrete, use a level (line level and four foot level), cut lumber and privacy plus lattice and are you comfortable using power tools
If you can do this then it is pretty easy, if not call a contractor and get three quotes

How do doctors instruct their staffs regarding patient privacy?

What kind of controls for privacy are put in place, besides HIPPA? Do doctors take care not to hire gossipy kind of people as receptionists?

What problems will the electronic medical records pose for privacy?

First let's set some background. Hippokrates of Kos (460-370 BCE) wrote his famous oath: One clause of this oath reads as follows: "... [link #1]

In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves.

All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal...."

"... will keep secret and will never reveal..." The oath requires absolute privacy between patient and physician.

HIPPAA is a joke in that individuals would have to spend their money to prosecute anyone ---physician, clerk, et al. for releasing their data. Law suits cost money.

Police (actually any law enforcement entity) can obtain your records for any lame excuse and they are proscribed from privacy law suits. (link #2)
Police/State auditors can also data mine insurance data for data. Number of sexual partners, ownership of firearms, past use of proscribed drugs are in medical records. People could be refused adoption/ child custody (firearms existence), past drug use based on medical data.

Employers who "pay" for "health insurance" can obtain detailed statistical data on the cost of a 58 yo white male with premium ratings on body weight for said subject. So employee can be precluded from employment based on medical data (expected cost of doing business) --- this is indirect but it is nevertheless effective.

Computerized system would standardize the input, level of detail, format of data --- This would make it easier for insurance brokers and medical data warehouses (MIB, Boston link 3) to acquire collate and disseminate data at an individual or aggregate level. Data are outsource to foreign site to repackage "research" data a short circuit of deniability on any privacy violations.

Standardized formates of data entry, storage,and table design allows easier for "illegal" access. The government wants these data to ration health care and to control individuals.

I urge all to read bill H. R. 2630 (link #4).

I suggest that you read up on Patient Privacy Rights .org (link 5)
