Dads doc visit

[Mean Morone]

My dad is 87 yrs old and is in failing health. He goes to the doc very often now. The other day he goes back to the doc and they tell him he has to fill out new info sheets. He starts filling it out and comes to a question that raises his eyebrow. He is asked if he owns a gun. He goes to the lady at the desk and asks what this is about. She asks him if he has registered guns. I wont give his answer, but the lady tells him to just answer no.

My question is, what does this have to do with his health history ? Makes me a little angry.

IMO it's an invasion of privacy. I think I will put noyb. (None of your business.) makes me angry too.
