Guam Seventh-Day Adventist Clinic, the covered entity (CE), reported that several employees were the subjects of an email phishing scheme that compromised the protected health information (PHI) of 56,635 individuals. The PHI involved included names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, dates of birth, financial information, drivers’ license numbers, government identification numbers, passport numbers, Social Security numbers, taxpayer identification numbers, diagnoses, and treatment and health insurance information. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and posted substitute notice on its website. In its mitigation efforts, the CE implemented additional administrative and technical safeguards and retrained its staff.
