Posted on July 20, 2015 by Dissent

Canadian Press reports:

The Saskatchewan Cancer Agency says it has disciplined two employees for viewing the private health information of 48 people they were not providing care for.

The information they looked at included patient names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, health services numbers as well as information about diagnostic tests, medical exams, clinical results, diagnoses and physician names.

Scott Livingstone, president of the agency, says it deeply regrets that it failed to protect their privacy.
