The prescription data was presumably resold by pharmacies (which?) to data brokers. This was their workaround to sidestep HIPAA ("It's not medical information, it's prescription information").
This is also why pharmacies pester you for your phone number, and to participate in their loyalty programs (don't).

The RhoGAM was filled by the hospital pharmacy, and other scripts were filled by CVS. My understanding is that "anonymized" data leaks from subrogration and the PBM as well that can be un-anonymized later.
