Michigan Medical Data Theft Alert

Hypertension-Nephrology Associates in Michigan experienced a cyberattack in February 2024, prompting concerns about patient data theft. Following the attack, a ransom note was discovered, demanding payment to prevent the release of stolen patient data. Third-party cybersecurity experts confirmed unauthorized access to the system from January 20 to February 6, 2024, during which protected health information was exfiltrated.

Despite efforts to assess the extent of the breach, it remains unclear how much patient data was compromised. Consequently, the medical practice assumes that all stored protected health information has been compromised, including sensitive details such as names, dates of birth, diagnoses, Social Security numbers, and health insurance identification numbers. In response, the practice has engaged third-party experts and implemented enhanced security measures to prevent future incidents.

Affected patients are being notified of the breach, and complimentary credit monitoring services are being offered to mitigate potential harm. Additionally, the incident has been reported to regulators, although the full scope of the breach’s impact is yet to be determined. The practice remains committed to compliance with HIPAA regulations and is taking proactive steps to safeguard patient information and prevent similar breaches in the future.
