There’s been a pretty concerted effort to recruit the Medicare letter to bipolar patients as an example in a broader case for data privacy (or against data linkage). I’ve pushed back on factual grounds — it didn’t involve giving a third party access to PBS data.
50,000 received or 50,000 sent? I'd expect at least 40% of the letters to never be read, from experience with blind mail-outs like this

Are you hair-splitting, Gideon?

Not at all. I think it's important to note that the large response of 1,000 complaints is probably only from a much smaller subset of the 50,000 letters sent. I'd guess that only 25-40,000 letters were ever actually opened/read
