About the health insurance records clearinghouse: 3. The Medical Information Bureau (MIB) is a central database of medical information. Approximately 15 million Americans and Canadians are on file in the MIB's computers. Over 750 insurance firms use the services of the MIB primarily to obtain information about life insurance and individual health insurance policy applicants. A decision on whether to insure you is not supposed to be based solely on the MIB report.
Visit the MIB web site at www.mib.com

For background on the MIB, see: http://www.privacyrights.org/fs/fs8-med.htm
