This is absolutely horrifying. Can anyone explain how this isn’t a massive HIPAA violation? Or is it, but there’s just nothing to be done because it’s the AG requesting records?

Edit: spelled HIPAA wrong

As my spouse often remarks, “The ‘P’ in HIPAA stands for ‘portability’, not ‘privacy’.” 😩

Damn. I clearly need to read up more on HIPAA. I haven't dug too much into this, but it looks like at least one person has challenged this as a HIPAA violation (source). I wish I had more confidence that anything would come of that.
