Description
Tampa General Hospital is notifying patients and staff members that someone may have accessed their personal data in a breach that happened back in May.
Hospital officials said the files the hackers accessed included names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, health insurance information and other patient and treatment information.
They also said the files were used for TGH's business operations and that the hackers didn't access the hospital's electronic medical record system.
The hospital will be mailing letters notifying anyone whose information may have been included in the files. They will also provide free credit monitoring and identity theft protection services to anyone whose Social Security numbers were accessed.
