Is the OIG illegally obtaining postal employee's

protected health information?

The text below is from NALC's Young in a recent

edition of the NALC postal record.. Is the NRLCA

addressing this??

In addition to bungling “investigations”

of letter carriers, the OIG also has appointed

itself a “health oversight agency” and is

going after personal, legally protected health

information without the consent or authorization

of carriers. The OIG secretly contacts

doctors for the information and tells them to

keep their letter carrier patients in the dark

about the loss of privacy. Outrageous!

I have directed NALC’s attorneys to pursue

this matter relentlessly through litigation.
