FAQ
The FMLA and the ADA provide employees with the right to the confidentiality of their medical information. Employees who find their rights infringed upon may choose to, and have the right to, pursue the matter in court.
FMLA states that an employee returning from leave is entitled to his or her former job or an equivalent job with the same pay and benefits. OFLA states that an employee returning from leave is entitled to the former job, or to an available equivalent job if the employee agrees or if the former job has been eliminated.
Although district courts conflict on whether a disclosure of an employee's medical information constitutes an interference claim under FMLA, the Court finds that enforcing labor regulation makes clear that confidentiality of medical information is a right provided by and protected by the FMLA.

While the employee is on leave, an employer can ask the employee to provide status updates, including asking the employee to obtain a second opinion regarding her condition. The caveat is that you may only ask the employee; you cannot ask anyone else about a particular employee's leave.
