File under BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING This super creepy story about how hospitals are beginning to monitor the habits of patients by data mining credit card transactions gives me the heebie jeebies. The article states that hospitals will be calling you if you go through the Dunkin Donuts drive through too many time in a month, but if you think thats all they will do, you are thinking short term. Eventually, this data will be used to deny you treatment and you are more likely to get a robo call like this: Sorry Mrs. Smith, but you are not eligible for knee surgery because you didnt follow our advice to lose weight. In fact, we see that you are drinking a large mochiato and not a small like you used to. You do qualify for a generic Tylenol III that is made in an Indian factory with significant quality control problems. Have a nice day.
