Golden Valley Health Centers
Golden Valley Health Centers has become aware of a data security incident that has resulted in the inadvertent exposure of patients’ health information after an unknown, unauthorized third party accessed it.
The investigation found that one of the affected email accounts contained medical information, perhaps including patients' billing and insurance information, patient referral information, and appointment data.
Golden Valley Health Centres has taken measures to prevent a similar incident from happening again, including, but not limited to, employee education and training, reviewing and revising information security, as well as privacy policies and procedures.
The organization is still committed to protecting the privacy of patients' information.
Additional details regarding what happened and a toll-free number where patients may get more information about the incident are included in letters that are addressed to patients who might be affected.
