The covered entity (CE), North Big Horn Hospital, reported that on October 2, 2014, it discovered that an Emergency Department (ED) logbook containing protected health information (PHI) was lost, affecting 1,607 individuals. The logbook contained the demographic and clinical information of patients seen in the ED from May 2012 through October 2013. The CE provided breach notification to HHS, affected individuals, and the media. OCR obtained and reviewed the CE's relevant HIPAA policies and procedures and provided technical assistance. On August 25, 2015, the CE reported that during a recent re-organization it found the reported logbook in a locked office on a shelf behind several binders. Accordingly, OCR has closed the investigation.
