I would like some explanation of that statement. Please cite the specific parts of the law if possible and explain what you mean by merged. As you claim some expertise on the ACA and how it has been implemented your words are given some greater authority.
Your statement seems to say that the federal government will have access to all the information in your personal medical record which would seem to violate most people's understanding of HIPAA.
