The covered entity (CE), Orlando Family Physicians, reported that multiple employees were the victims of an email phishing attack that affected the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 447,426 individuals. The ePHI involved included names, addresses, dates of birth, medical record numbers, Social Security numbers, and clinical and health insurance information. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and provided substitute notice. In its mitigation efforts, the CE strengthened its technical safeguards and retrained its staff on email security. OCR provided the CE with technical assistance regarding the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule.
