Saint Louis University, the covered entity (CE), reported that multiple employees were the subjects of an email phishing scheme affecting 48,392 individuals. The PHI involved included names, addresses, dates of birth, drivers’ license and Social Security numbers, claims and financial information, diagnoses, lab results, and medications. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and provided substitute notice. In its mitigation efforts, the CE implemented additional administrative, technical, ad security safeguards. All staff were retrained on email security precautions.
