Re: service of subpoena
Such subpoenas are indeed valid for non-employees; perhaps the only example you list that would arguably be privileged is the doctor. Generally, in NY an attorney can issue a subpoena, or an elected agency head; however, under normal circumstances a court must "so order" a subpoena for hospital records, or one served on a city agency.
