A file server at the Office of Health Services was compromised and impermissibly accessed. The compromise potentially exposed the prescription records of 27,000 individuals to an unauthorized source. The protected health information involved in the breach included names, addresses diagnostic codes, name of medication prescribed, medication costs and some social security numbers. Following the discovery of the breach, UTA removed the server from the network, notified the affected individuals and notified local media. Following the breach, the covered entity also replaced the operating system and implemented additional technical safeguards. \
