Jackson Health System Data Breach (2013)

Jackson lost more than 1,400 patients’ data in January 2013 and have sent those patients notification letters. The Jackson Health Information Management department was in the middle of scanning paper health records into the EHR system when it inadvertently lost them. The organization maintains that while Social Security numbers, credit card numbers and financial statements were not included in the documents, personal health information such as different types of procedures and diagnoses were part of the missing records.
