The covered entity (CE), Select Health Network, reported that an employee was the subject of an email phishing incident that affected the protected health information (PHI) of 56,790 individuals. The PHI involved included names, birthdates, addresses, drivers’ licenses and Social Security numbers, claims and financial information, diagnoses, lab results, and medications. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and posted substitute notice on its website. In its mitigation efforts, the CE provided complimentary credit monitoring and identity restoration services and implemented additional administrative and technical safeguards to better protect its PHI. Employees were retrained on email security.
