OCR description

The covered entity (CE), CVS Pharmacy, reported that a former employee was in possession of prescription records that contained the protected health information (PHI) of 826 individuals. The PHI included names, addresses, dates of birth, and medication information. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, and established a complimentary phone number for questions or concerns. In its mitigation efforts, the CE updated its policies and procedures and retrained its staff on the requirements for safeguarding PHI.
