If you reach one of the release thresholds (i think its 24 days in 365, and 54 days in 3 years, not sure of the numbers) the company may request the records for the doctor visit that put you over the trigger and subsequent ones to that. they can't ask for earlier records.
3. They can't ask for any records that don't relate to Delta sick calls
4. If you don't turn over your records you don't get paid for the sick time.
Don't ask me to quote language but that is what I picked up from listening to the road show.
Did you ask them the question, what if they find something disqualifying at your doctor's visit but you were there for something else. For example back pain, but x ray shows kidney stone. Currently chief pilot doesn't look at your x rays but now AME will. What do you think is going to happen to you? And good luck getting your medical back.
