OCR description

Due to a technical error during a data conversion process, the covered entity (CE) sent correspondence to 1,126 patients’ incorrect addresses. The types of protected health information (PHI) involved in the breach varied based on the correspondence and may have included the full names, former addresses, birthdates, claims information, diagnoses/conditions, lab results, medications, and other treatment information. The CE provided breach notification to HHS, affected individuals, and the media. Following the breach, the CE retrained staff, corrected addresses, and developed a plan to implement additional safeguards for data conversions. OCR obtained documented assurances that the CE implemented the corrective actions noted above.
