A healthcare system located in Kentucky is notifying more than 40,000 patients of an error that saw their personal health information (PHI) emailed to the wrong address.
UofL Health, which is based in Louisville, consists of five hospitals, four medical centers, nearly 200 physician practice locations, more than 700 providers, the Frazier Rehab Institute and Brown Cancer Center.
Earlier this month, the system notified the Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights of an email security incident involving the unauthorized disclosure of data belonging to 42,465 individuals.
