In our state, the only records that are "public" are controlled RX histories. Only medical offices or pharmacies have access to these. When requested it will show which doctors have been prescribing which drugs in the Controlled class only, to that patient, quantities and dates. They can be very helpful in detecting diversion and potential problems with drug seekers.
All pharmacies in our state, send in electronic records on every controlled drug purchase with ID of patient (driver's license or state ID card).
HIPPA should be in place for other records and data. Unless you signed it off when you went to that doctor, etc.
