OCR description
Alleged hackers gained unauthorized access to one or two hard drives on the desktop computers of the covered entity (CE), Dr. Ronald D. Garrett-Roe, affecting approximately 1,600 patients’ protected health information. The CE reported that the hard drive had been removed, all of the files copied, and the hard drive formatted, which caused all of the computer programs, the operating system, and many patient records to be erased. Dr. Garrett-Roe is no longer a covered entity.
