I can tell you some history of men who were ship yard workers, steamfitters and welders who received lesser asbestos settlement pay outs because they told their doctors that they smoked.

“Your child is suffering from high levels of lead poisoning. Do you own firearm? do you reload firearms?”
What the law should mandate is that the doctor cannot record any info regarding firearms or firearm ownership outside of a direct correlation to a diagnosis.
This is in response to the Obamacare mandate that makes electronic medical records accessible to government, thus creating a defacto firearms registry.
