Im working and my phone rings, I answer it as usual and a man with broken English says he has a report sent to him monthly pertaining to my monthly, LEGALY prescribed meds by my local Doc in chicago and that he can provide the same meds at a highly discounted rate. I proceeded to ask him "what Rx's does your report indicate to you that I am prescribed?" He proceeds to tell me the exact information, the meds, the daily dosage and how many a month I am prescribed by my licensed Doc and every tid bit of information is 100% accurate. Here In the states we have a thing called the HIPPA law which supposedly protects my privacy in regards to all my personal medical information, including who my DR is, my conditions, my medications, everything.
So for the hell of it, I place an order strictly for what I am legally prescribed, 13 days later a bubble mailer shows up in my mail box with my prescriptions in it.
So I anticipated being told when I called in for my refills "we already refilled your scripts via mail order" however, the docs office and pharmacy were none the wiser, they filled my scripts as they always do.
So my questions are
1. how in the world did my hippa rights get violated (everything here is computerized, when I get a script filled a report is sent to my docs office reporting what was filled and when it was picked up, right down to the hour in the day I picked it up, no such report was generated and my pharmacy and D's office is totally unaware of this call or scripts being filled)
2. HOW can this be happening? They call back offering much more prescription medication, Oxy, Dilaudid, percoset, adderall, none of which I am prescribed, I was told by this person they were sending me a sample pack of Oxycontin, Xanax, Soma and percoset and it would be here in 10 working days.
Has anyone else recieved this type of call and what is your take on this series of events?
The medications that arrived from the "1st order" were totally legit.... seems to good to be true. Has anyone else recieved this call? Or a call similar to it?
