Has anyone heard any good HIPAA stories or seen any good political HIPAA cartoons...especially Administration Simplification? I've been asked to dress up a HIPAA presentation with some humor. Frankly, I don't see anything humorous about this, but then again, maybe I'm just too cynical.

A couple years ago our local chapter of WPBC had a luncheon topic on HIPAA. My boss talked me into going, on the basis that a much "HIPAA" crowd would be attending than is usually the case. Sorry, grasping at straws.

jeanine -
I think you're right, there's not much about HIPAA that's humorous. I would challenge this crowd to a HIPAA Haiku contest, which lets us all vent and left brain activate and gives you some stand up material! Here goes: Soon it will be here HIPAA: what must be done now? We sweat much at night Privacy oh no When we make bad disclosure Will we go to jail? C'mon, y'all...help jeanine out here! |

Hey, look on the bright side, HIPAA may not be funny but at least it does not violate the unpronounceable acronym rule.

If you plan on having a cocktail session after the presentation, here's a limerick that you can try, if you like. Wouldn't make in part of the formal presentation, however.
Here is a quick little tip-a, 'Bout a law that's known as HIPAA. My advice is to try, Real hard to comply, Or else a new one they'll rip ya! |

Hank,
I just figured it our. I did what I should have done in the first place, i.e. look up the definition of "Haiku" |

Love the haiku suggestion. How about:
Administrative simplification is not. False advertising. (Punctuation is everything!) |
