It depends what paperwork the officer has. I'd expect something signed 
by at least an Inspector, and with at least as much detail as required 
by the ISPs pre-RIPA (which was all agreed at great length with the ICO 
and ACPO): http://www.internetcrimeforum.org.uk/dpa29-3form.html#form

I highly recommend reading notes 7, 8 &9.

Indeed, I'd probably expect an even higher standard for medical records.

Just as they do when performing non-core functions for the patents 
themselves!
