I don't think they can see anything, except...

1) Something you provide, or authorize.
2) Non-HIPAA data such as disability payments from other federal branches (VA, SSA).

If you're involved in an incident they can of course get court orders for probably anything they want. But I think fishing expeditions are limited to #2. I don't think they can access your medical records from other fed branches (DoD, VA) without a warrant, due to HIPAA. Not 100% on that though.
