The PHI involved included names, diagnoses/conditions, and other treatment information. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, the media, and posted substitute notice on its website. Complimentary credit monitoring services were also provided. In response to the breach, the CE sanctioned the responsible employee and revised its policies and procedures. OCR provided technical assistance to the CE regarding the HIPAA Privacy Rule.
