According to the Supreme Court decision at the heart of the new NSA scandal, just pretend that you have no expectation of privacy for that information you “voluntarily” gave to a third party as a necessary part of the normal business relationship, and that you “assumed the risk” that, for no reason whatsoever, it would inevitably be given to the government. That lays the foundation for the proper way to steal any and all personal information.
My original thought was Kaiser and Blue Cross since this seems to have been accomplished in California and they are two of the larger insurers in the state. However, the current population is only about half of the number that were confiscated so one would think that it has to be more than just California.
Would need to know if they are counting one record as one visit or one record as total visits by one person. Based on the information available, it’s beyond speculation and just wild guessing, IMO.
Rush very briefly mentioned this theft without giving any details.

Just took the politically valuable ones, no doubt.
And, apparently, every member of SAG. Hello to Hollywood!
