Pocahontas Medical Clinic, PA, recently announced a significant data breach involving sensitive personal identifiable information and protected health information. The clinic detected suspicious activity within its network environment, prompting an internal investigation to determine the specifics of the incident. The investigation revealed that unauthorized access to sensitive personal information may have occurred on May 30, 2024. As a result, Pocahontas Medical Clinic undertook a comprehensive review to identify what information was compromised and which individuals were affected.

Following the investigation’s conclusion on July 1, 2024, the clinic found that the data potentially exposed included various types of personal information. This includes names, Social Security numbers, addresses, dates of birth, and contact information such as phone numbers and email addresses. Additionally, medical information, including medical record numbers, diagnoses, treatment details, and health insurance information, may have also been accessed by the unauthorized party. The scope of this breach underscores the serious implications for the affected individuals, as such information can be exploited for identity theft and fraud.

In response to the breach, Pocahontas Medical Clinic issued a notice on its website on August 1, 2024, informing the public of the incident. The clinic is also taking steps to notify impacted individuals directly through data breach notification letters. These communications will provide details on the types of sensitive information that were compromised and offer guidance on protective measures that individuals can take. Pocahontas Medical Clinic aims to ensure transparency throughout this process while helping those affected understand the potential risks associated with the breach.

To further support affected individuals, Pocahontas Medical Clinic is offering 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring services. This initiative is designed to assist individuals in monitoring their credit and personal information for any signs of misuse. The clinic, based in Pocahontas, Arkansas, has a long history of providing community healthcare services, including preventive visits and various medical tests.
