The business associate (BA), RCCA MSO, LLC, reported that several employees were the victims of an email phishing scheme that affected the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 102,000 individuals. The ePHI involved included names, health insurance information, medications prescribed, Social Security numbers, drivers’ license numbers, and financial information. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and posted substitute notice to its website. The CE also provided complimentary credit monitoring and identity restoration services. Following the breach, the CE implemented additional administrative, technical, and security safeguards to better protect its ePHI and retrained its workforce members on the proper methods of identifying and responding to fraudulent email communications.
