Re: doctors information

If the company is paying for the doctor of course they have
an interest in the information.

But...Generally they should not have any right to such
information. If there is a company policy, was it published
to the employees? If not then they can not pull this out of
thin air and claim Policy. Remember Paul policy is only a
general guide line in which companies operate, they are NOT
LAW. The law does not care what policy is if it infringes
on state or Federal or Natural law.

You could tell them the name of the doctor is personal
information and you are not at liberty to devulge it because
it is YOUR policy.
