Correction to our January 31, 2023 newsletter article, “Dialysis Provider Satellite Healthcare Reports Data Breach Affecting Nearly 100k Patients”:
Media Statement, Satellite Healthcare -
In January 2023, Satellite Healthcare made its annual report, as required, of all potential inappropriate uses of protected health information. One such breach occurred in Texas when staff manually pulled and reported a list of patients to a Covered Entity Healthcare Provider. This report inadvertently included patients not affiliated with the provider. This breach occurred as a result of human error, not a cyber-attack. It was localized and the patient impact was less than 25.
