The covered entity (CE), Maranatha Village, reported that several employees were the victims of an email phishing scheme that affected the protected health information (PHI) of 520 individuals. The PHI involved included names, dates of birth, addresses, claims information, diagnoses, lab results, medications prescribed, and Social Security numbers. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and provided substitute notice. In its mitigation efforts, the CE provided complimentary identity protections services and implemented additional administrative and technical safeguards to better protect its PHI. Employees were retrained on email security.
