[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 2838021, member: 7966"] Seriously ... what would HIPPA have to do with this? HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) appears to be concerned mostly with privacy. If the center manager calls the doctor, that means the employee told the center manager the doctor's name, which means there is no privacy concerns. My advice is to never tell your management what your (or wife's) medical condition and the doctors' names. At UPS, FMLA is handled by an outside agency (AETNA, MetLife, etc.) and UPS and your local management should not have that information unless the employee told them. [/QUOTE]
