Description

Columbia University Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital reported that 4,929 patients had PHI on a stolen desktop computer. The theft from a locked office occurred sometime between October 12, 2012 and October 15, 2012. I was able to find a privacy alert still on their website and a press release.
