OCR description
The covered entity (CE) sent an email containing 975 patients’ names, addresses, dates of birth and insurance identification numbers to an email address outside of the company. On December 6, 2017, OCR received notification from WhiteGlove’s attorney that WhiteGlove ceased all healthcare business activities, effective August 31, 2017. OCR verified this information through a statement posted on WhiteGlove’s website. Under these circumstances WhiteGlove is no longer a CE and is not subject to the requirements of HIPAA.
