08NR12 – MRF News Release – HIPAA Update
July 31, 2008 by Hersey · Leave a Comment
The Motorcycle Riders Foundation reports that language similar to the HIPAA loophole-fix language contained in HR 1076 may be offered by the bill’s sponsor to a piece of legislation being worked on by the US House Energy and Commerce committee, as previously reported by the MRF.
While we are not privy to private negotiations between committee leadership and the bill’s sponsor, we are cautiously optimistic that language that would be of benefit to motorcyclists would be included.
The MRF has been aggressively lobbying committee members and staff to encourage this.
