Derek, you guys did a real good job. :thumbsup: The only major disagreement that I have is the state registry. This gives that state access to a patients health records and this information is privileged information between a doctor and a patient. Requiring a patient to give this information to the state is an infringment on the patient's privacy. Maybe something like have the state only seeing a doctor's authorization, but still the registry is a very bad idea.

Do we have a registry for alcoholics????? How about a registry for Viagra users????

Still, I like the bulk of the bill and it defines things pretty clearly. :jointsmile:

Feel free to send a copy of this to your elected officials and ask them to support it. We tried to be as encompassing as possibly while avoiding the pitfalls of other states, and any flaws can be worked out during debate in the legislature. I'd love to hear what people think of the bill!" Rating: 5
