Recent HHS updates

Posted on July 1, 2013 by Dissent

HHS has updated its breach tool again.  Here are the new additions, starting with the ones we already knew about:

  • Fayetteville VAMC
  • UMASS Amherst
  • Various Health Plans, AL, SynerMed / Inland Valleys IPA (note: 3,164 were affected)
  • Lincoln County Health and Human Services/Lincoln Community Health Center (note: 959 were affected)
  • Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital
  • Palm Beach County Health Department (Note: if this is the same breach reported in the media as going on for a year and affecting 2,800, it’s curious that the county’s report to HHS says 877 were affected and that the breach occurred January 7 of this year.)
  • Gulf Breeze Family Eyecare

It seems the only one not covered in the media was one involving Union Security Insurance Company in Missouri that affected 1,127 insured. The breach occurred May 17, and involved “Improper Disposal, E-mail.” I’m not finding anything else on the breach at this time.
