OCR description
The covered entity (CE), Baylor Miraca Genetics Laboratories, LLC, dba Baylor Genetics, reported that several workforce members were the victims of an email phishing scheme that affected the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 208,000 individuals. The ePHI involved included names, addresses, phone numbers, health insurance information, and clinical diagnoses. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and provided substitute notice. In its mitigation efforts, the CE implemented additional administrative and technical safeguards to better protect the privacy of its ePHI. The CE also retrained its staff. OCR obtained assurances that the CE implemented the corrective actions noted.
