That's Kansas. Our Attorney General has some idiotic notions about medical record privacy, but not that idiotic. Fortunately, there's not a HIPAA exception for what the good Attorney General from Kansas wants, though I suppose he could try to get a court order.
Since he's ostensibly looking to root out statutory rapists through late term abortion records (his reasoning, not mine), one would think he'd just look at the publicly available birth records and find out which mothers were under the age of consent when they gave birth. His is the more circuitous path.
ETA: Coincidently, I read today in
Grits for Breakfast about a new movement in Texas called "Save our TexSons."

that's taking on an important but truly taboo topic: they were formed to criticize Texas statutory rape laws and the application of lifetime sex offender registration to consensual sexual acts between youths.

Apparently 14 year olds are so hussied up that it's hard to tell who's legal any more. See Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset for more information.
