Wtf this is not correct at all. Pharmacists are part of your healthcare team and are absolutely just as bound by HIPAA as your doctor. If a cop asks for records we direct them to corporate so that lawyers can figure that out. Same if a lawyer subpoenas for records.
Though you are correct if another pharmacist or a physician called to ask what a patient was taking we would not be bound by HIPAA because that request should be required info to treat the patient. Eg, you are in the hospital and they have to call the pharmacy to see what you are taking because you either aren’t sure or are unconscious.
