The covered entity's (CE's) business associate (BA) mailed a package to the CE that was supposed to contain a backup data tape and compact disc containing protected health information (PHI); however, the tape was not in the package when delivered. Approximately 2,000 individuals were affected by the breach. The PHI included demographic, financial, and clinical information. The CE provided breach notification to affected individuals, HHS, and the media. Following the breach, the CE revised its procedures for back up data storage instead of sending tapes via the mail. Following OCR's investigation, the CE continued to reevaluate ways to enhance administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. \
