People: Do NOT Call This Site About the AMCA Breach

Posted on August 6, 2019 by Dissent

Folks — I know a lot of you may be receiving mail — some of it incorrect — about the AMCA breach, but do not call me about it.  Call the party that sent you the notification or Google their name to find out more.  I cannot help you.  If they sent something to your address with the wrong name, there’s nothing I can do about that. If they sent something to you and you don’t even recognize the name of the lab or company, there’s nothing I can do to help you.

Call whomever sent you the mail and ask THEM.

And if you don’t like their answers, file a complaint against them with HHS/OCR under HIPAA.
