FDA Drug Identification Service

I was surprised to discover this service. According to the FDA Drug Identification webpage:
"Division staff can identify drugs for you based on physical appearance (color, shape, size, etc.) and markings. Email DDI your drug description at druginfo@.fda.hhs.gov. 
We will identify drugs for you as soon as possible. However, please note that this is not an emergency service. In the case of an emergency, please contact the Poison Control Center 1-800-222-1222."

FDA Regulated Businesses - Will you be compliant with the new FTC rule?

If you're in the FDA regulated industries, you might want to pay attention to the FTC's new rule according to this Casetext post, August 1, 2009 - FTC’s New Identity Theft Rule Probably Requires You To Comply. In a nutshell, Koustas & Fleder say:
Given the apparent reluctance of the FTC to create exemptions from this regulation, most companies regulated by FDA must determine if the Rule applies to them. If the answer is yes, there is an August 1, 2009 deadline fast approaching to develop and implement a compliance plan. Failure to comply may subject the entity to administrative enforcement action by FTC as well as civil liability to consumers.

Medical Identity Theft Emerging

And you thought you only had to worry about your credit cards and bank accounts. Looks like crooks are also trying to move into the medical identity theft arena. According to Brenda Evans Hart (the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act privacy officer at Baylor College of Medicine), "I think now it's gone so far as to be part of organized crime for fraud regarding Medicare, Medicaid and regular commercial insurance." Additionally, Hart said. "And of course, that comes out of the taxpayers' pockets as well." Hart is cited in this Houston Chronicle article, "Medical records emerge as latest trend in I.D. theft." The article includes the following tips . . .

Safety Tips From The World Privacy Forum:

  1. Review statements from your health insurer. Specifically, look for charges you didn't make.
  2. Ask your health care provider or insurer for an accounting or history of disclosures.
  3. Watch your credit report for any collection notices for unpaid medical bills.
