A copy of Sarasota County's medical privacy waiver form. CLICK HERE to see a copy of the waiver forms.
I agree it’s a sly way to violate rights.
But in Tennessee, Purchases of controlled substances are kept on a database. Any doctor can pull a patient’s history and see if they are doctor shopping for pain pills.
They are also required to refer patients to pain management centers if their pain management is long-term.
Our Sheriff here in Onslow County (Ed Brown), has been aiming towards the same goal.
HIPAA

Good for those doctors! 0bama Care will replace them however with good little drones.
I wouldn’t call this a violation of privacy, since it is voluntary. I only ask why the patients would agree, as if to say “Okay, officer, I’ll help you bust me”? Of course people are stupid. But nit that stupid, apparently, since forms aren’t getting back to cops.
How is this “sly”? It’s rather in your face and obvious.
More surrender of rights to the almighty state.
The doctor/patient privilege is as sacrosanct as priest/penitent and lawyer/client privileges.
What needs to go is the asinine War on Drugs.
Handed out a year ago, and yet never once used, and it’s making news today. Hmmmm.
