This would be against HIPPA laws which are so severe, a hospital employee can not even call you by name without your consent. Could you imagine this bypassing that? I used to joke with the nurses that HIPPA is getting so bad they were going to have to put patient photos on the charts instead of their names.

Employers are only tenuously bound by HIPAA.
Really, so are they just going to conjure up your prescription info out of thin air? They can't get the information.

Are you disagreeing with me? That's basically what I said in my next sentence.

Then that would be a good example of an employer HIPAA violation. As stated previously, state law doesn't trump federal law.
