individuals who have contracted certain communicable diseases or
conditions. Such information is used to prevent further outbreak of the
disease or condition.
3. To disclose information to the appropriate Federal, State, or
local agencies responsible for investigation of an accident, disease,
medical condition, or injury as required by pertinent legal authority.
4. To disclose to the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs
about a claim for benefits filed.
