Florida Suspends Mirra Health Over Unauthorized Offshore Data Sharing

Florida regulators have suspended Mirra Health Care LLC after an investigation revealed the company exposed sensitive health data of thousands of Medicare Advantage members by sharing it with unauthorized offshore firms. The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (OIR) found that Mirra Health, which processes claims and enrollment for over 23,000 vulnerable Florida residents many with serious or long-term health conditions outsourced work to unlicensed companies in India and the Philippines without proper approval.

Florida Insurance Commissioner Mike Yaworsky issued an immediate suspension of Mirra Health’s certificate of authority on Tuesday, calling the company’s actions "extremely reckless." The OIR determined that Mirra Health violated state insurance laws by failing to secure consent from the HMOs it serves before transferring data abroad, leaving patients’ private information outside Florida’s regulatory oversight.

During the investigation, Mirra Health also failed to provide all required contracts, compounding its compliance violations. Regulators concluded that the company’s practices created "ongoing, unauthorized exposure" of personal health data, preventing the state and health plans from ensuring full protection for affected individuals.

Mirra Health has been ordered to cease operations in Florida while the investigation remains ongoing.
