How HIPPA Violations Affect the Medical Billing Process Kristie Casey-Close HCR/220 September 8, 2010 Pamela Kerby Since the discovery of the viruses that cause Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the early 1980s by the following doctors Dr. Luc Montagnier of the Pasteur Institute in Paris and Dr. Anthony Gallo at the National Cancer Institute in Washington (Rainey, 2006). There has been much controversy over who discovered HIV/AIDS regardless of whom it was we should just be thankful that it was discovered and is being studied so that one day we can find a cure. It is thought that more than one million people are living with HIV in the United States, worldwide at the end of 2007 there was an estimated 33.0 million people living with HIV (Avert, 2009). Since the HIV/AIDS was discovered and brought to be an epidemic there has been over half a million people that have died from complications associated with AIDS- the equivalent of Las Vegas (Avert, 2009).There are approximately 56,000 new HIV infections a year in the United States. HIPPA has found a way to ensure the confidentially of the all people with medical conditions especially those that are suffering with the ever contagious HIV/AIDS (Avert, 2009).

The Policy Process Pt. Two Sharkia Fountain HCS/455 April 11, 2011 Bette Sorrento Once the first stage of a policy has been completed one still have to complete the final stages of the process. These stages consist of evaluation, analysis, and revision along with one other stage. Nonetheless, putting this together will help to make this policy process become law in regard to the HIV/AIDS epidemic within the United States and Nationwide areas. After the plans have been issued, there is an evaluation that needs to be performed to test how the well the plan is implemented.
Isolates showing inhibition zones of 30 μg cefoxitin (Oxoid, Cambridge, UK) disk, and that were positive for mecA gene by PCR, were characterized as MRSA. 2.4. Molecular typing PFGE was performed to analyze genetic relatedness of MRSA isolates collected from personnel and hospitalized patients in the high risk wards, with SmaI according to the protocol described previously ( ------). Briefly, after the SeaKem Gold Agarose embedded DNA was digested with 10 U of restriction endonuclease SmaI (Roche, Mannheim, Germany) for 1.5–2 h in water bath at 37 °C, DNA fragments were electrophoresed in 0.5 × TBE buffer at 14 °C for 24 h in Chef Mapper electrophoresis system (Biometra, Rotaphor system 6.0, 230V ), with pulse times of 5 s–60 s. Salmonella Braenderup H9812 was used as DNA ladder control strain. After DNAs were separated, the gel was stained with ethidium bromide, the DNA patterns were
Leah McMillan ENGL 1120 Rhetorical Analysis of a Published Argument 3 February 2012 The National Security Implications of HIV/AIDS In Harley Feldbaum’s essay “The National Security Implications of HIV/AIDS”, he compares the perspective on the linkage between public health and national security. The pattern of organization in this argument is mainly a defense of the main idea—that infectious diseases threaten American national security. Whether it may be in America or abroad, the HIV/AIDS pandemic has affected millions of people. Although Feldbaum effectively negotiates that this nexus of society needs to have a better understanding of the public health and HIV/AIDS, the reader gets a more detailed understanding of how global health does not fit easily into the state-centered perspective of national security. Despite that fact that Feldbaum successfully makes his claim that the risks and benefits of addressing HIV/AIDS as a national security issue can cause serious benefits and dangers, he must also refute the opposing view—that stating these issues openly will benefit the progression of medications for the unhealthy.
