HIPAA says your doctor can't disclose that info. It doesn't say they can't call and ask.I can call and ask your doctor. If he tells me, he's committed a HIPAA violation. Not me.HIPAA has nothing to do with OP's responsibility (or lack thereof) to disclose medical information to his employer. Neither are HIPAA bound entities.
It does if they call my doctor to ask. Hippa protect any thing about my health being shared
