That's absurd. There are very specific guidelines for sharing protected health information with and among law enforcement. There is no paperwork that "all receiving parties" can fill out to cover a blanket broadcast of protected information to anyone with an encrypted police radio. You would still need to have a specific purpose for disclosure, and disclose only the required information to only the necessary parties. An encrypted channel would still be available to dispatchers, administrators, and a bunch of random people that don't need to receive that information.
