My company just announced today that 2 months after our open enrollment is complete our company is bringing in a private company to do mandatory blood draws on all employees with benefits.
I asked if this was being done by our insurance company or if it was our company doing this. I was told it wasn't for the insurance company and was at company level. I was also told that if I refuse, they will cancel my insurance benefits.
I asked if I could have my primary physician do it (that way he would only provide what he felt they needed to know and nothing more) and they said no. They won't really tell me what they are looking for or what will be tested. However as the day went on they now claim its for the Insurance company but that is not what their emailed response to me was from earlier in the day.
To me this just doesn't sound right. There is a reason my insurance company (even being under the company group) is restricted from what they can tell my employer and I feel this is a back door technique to get as much medical info on employees as possible.
Isn't this a HIPPA, ADA and constitution violation?
