Physicians' Primary Care Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Physicians' Primary Care data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Physicians’ Primary Care of Southwest Florida experienced a security incident involving unauthorized access to the practice's IT network, discovered on September 17, 2024. Upon discovery, the response included implementing new security measures and engaging experts to assist with an investigation, which later revealed that the unauthorized access likely began on September 15, 2024.
The breach potentially exposed personal data belonging to patients and employees, including Social Security and driver’s license numbers. While Physicians' Primary Care has not revealed what other types of personal information may have been compromised, the breach was reported to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which indicates that protected health information may have been affected.
