(update) 357 people affected by documents stolen from Wake Forest Baptist

Posted on July 14, 2011 by Dissent

Richard Craver reports:

Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center has told the state Attorney General’s office that 357 individuals have been affected by a security breach involving missing documents, some of which contained Social Security and medical-records numbers.

On June 1, a statement from the center said it fired an employee, Linda Bowden Turner, who had taken medical records and documents dating from 1995 to 2006 to a home she owns at 1721 Swing Drive in Winston-Salem and other sites under her control.

The attorney general’s office released the Wake Forest Baptist report today.

Fox8 provides some additional details, including that letters were sent to 136 patients and 221 medical center employees.
