FL: Employee of unnamed community health care provider indicted for stealing 9,000 patients’ info

Posted on April 9, 2015 by Dissent

And yet another insider breach in the healthcare sector results in criminal prosecution. The entity is not named in the press release and the case is not yet up on PACER:

  United States v. Yvenante Achille, Case. No. 15-20229-CR-Lenard

In April 3, 2015, defendant Yvenante Achille, 30, of Miami, was charged by indictment for her participation in an identity theft tax fraud scheme.

According to the indictment, Achille was an employee of a community health care provider.  As part of her regular employment, the defendant had access to patient records, which contained personal identifying information (“PII”).  Between August 22, 2013, and March 26, 2104, the defendant stole the PII of more than 9,000 current and former patients. Achille provided the stolen PII, without the patients authorization or permission, to a co-conspirator.  Using a patient’s PII, the co-conspirator filed a fraudulent tax return.

The indictment charges the defendant with conspiracy to commit access device fraud, possession of fifteen or more unauthorized access devices, and possession of fifteen or more unauthorized access devices.
