Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is currently investigating Kentucky-based DataHEALTH, Inc., a healthcare industry cloud hosting, cloud backup, data storage and recovery service provider, for failing to safeguard sensitive patient information in a data breach discovered in early November of 2021. Through its investigation, DataHEALTH discovered that an unauthorized party accessed DataHEALTH servers and obtained data that was kept on those servers, including patient names, addresses, phone numbers, medical-related and/or insurance related information, dates of birth, payment information, and/or Social Security numbers. DataHEALTH began mailing letters to impacted patients on January 20, 2022.
While DataHEALTH now claims to have secured its servers and cut off unauthorized access to its systems, the hacker(s) may have already obtained and sold the compromised patient information. In previous data breaches, victims of data theft have noticed identity theft attempts ranging from fraudulent charges on bank accounts or credit cards, government services ordered in their name, or their information being posted on the dark web.
