Move over NSA, here comes the Obamacare Big Brother - TopicsExpress



          

Move over NSA, here comes the Obamacare Big Brother database Would you trust thousands of low-level Federal bureaucrats and contractors with one-touch access to your private financial and medical information? Under Obamacare you wont have any choice. As the Obamacare train-wreck begins to gather steam, there is increasing concern in Congress over something called the Federal Data Services Hub. The Data Hub is a comprehensive database of personal information being established by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement the federally facilitated health insurance exchanges. The purpose of the Data Hub, according to a June 2013 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, is to provide electronic, near real-time access to federal data and access to state and third party data sources needed to verify consumer-eligibility information. In these days of secret domestic surveillance by the intelligence community, rogue IRS officials and state tax agencies using private information for political purposes, and police electronically logging every license plate that passes by, the idea of the centralized Data Hub is making lawmakers and citizens nervous. - See more at:rare.us/story/move-over-nsa-here-comes-the-obamacare-big-brother-database/#sthash.3s8KHI4d.dpuf
