Selling medical records would fall under a different law same goes for sharing credit #s cards you collect.

I think the issue is around public data here. If you made medical records available to the public you would be in trouble in many countries. Sharing those may land you in the same trouble as the website who initially posted it under that law. The person shouldn't be charged with unauthorized access because the materials are public.
