Martians Need Health Care Too....

Thank You SUPERPOOP for the chuckle =o)

It's one of those things that we all argue about.... a little fun

HR Forum: Friday HR Humor - HIPAA/HIPPA: "Friday, March 28, 2008
Friday HR Humor - HIPAA/HIPPA
HIPAA - One of the most misspelled acronyms in the HR vocabulary.

What it stands for (if you don’t know already): Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.

HIPAA or HIPPA? You say tomato, I say tomahto? Potato, potahto?

Instead of calling the whole thing off, here’s some ideas for what HIPPA could stand for:


For bureaucrats:

Help in Paper Proliferation Acceleration

Help Incompetents Push Paper Around


For cautious optimists:

Hopefully Inclusive Patient Protection Act


For realists:

Hopelessly Incomplete Patient Protection Act


For health care big business:

Healthy Individuals Push Profits Away


For the rest of us:

Hospitals Inspire Patently Pitiful Appetites

How is Paperwork Protecting Anybody

Hell’s Infernal Paperwork Proliferation Act

How Intelligent People Prevaricate Administratively

Thanks G. Neil for the smile.

We took a whole day (that we really couldn't spare) to go over HIPAA in class. And still it goes back and forth HIPPA or HIPAA? I like "How is Paperwork Protecting Anybody" =o)
