Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA)

The Emergency Medical Services Authority in Tulsa experienced unauthorized network access between February 10, 2024, and February 13, 2024, compromising files that included patient information such as names, addresses, dates of birth, service dates, primary care providers, and Social Security numbers for some individuals. EMSA was unable to provide services to the community during the hack, impacting 611,743 individuals.
