How later courts describe this case
- where issue of the legality of appellant’s detention by the Border Patrol was raised during trial, failure by the appellant to designate the trial transcript precludes review
- "A patient routinely authorizes the release of medical records for use by insurance companies. A medical provider without express authority to release information would be acting as the patient's agent in obtaining payment of medical expenses from insurance companies."
