I'm pretty sure that if you allow the release of HIPAA covered information from a provider to your employer that the information stored by your employer is not protected by HIPAA anymore. HIPAA restricts what covered entities can do (basically healthcare providers and insurance), not what can be done with medical information in general. Of course most decent employers will handle even mildly sensitive information in a confidential way.
