Pre-employment health screening question

Published

I was just offered a job at a major hospital. I am suppose to go to occupational health to do a pre-employment health screening. I have been a patient there previously. Does occupational health have access to my medical records since it is the same medical group/company?

Yes, they do. However, it would be a HIPAA violation to access them for a pre-employment screening.
