For example someone suffering from schitzophrenia probably shouldn't be given a permit to carry a gun. My opinion of course.



Most gun injuries/fatalities are cause by nominally sane people. So in my opinion that is the problem. I believe only the certifiable insane should own/carry guns since statistically they injure far fewer people! and shooting at invisible people rarely causes injuries.

But on the med record issue, there is a patients privacy act in california. LE/FEDS/DRS can view med records WITH A COURT ORDER. I would be more concerned about insurance records - since the company owns them and they are not covered by DR/patient confidentiality

I am in the insurance industry and we adhere to the same laws as the medical industry. HIPAA and all that.

JasonG- My guess would be your insurance company ( or companies ) don't participate in the program.
They only have what data is given to them.
