On November 13, 2020, Mercy Iowa City Hospital began informing patients that the hospital had fallen victim to a data breach between May 15 and June 24. The breach was discovered when someone noticed phishing emails had been sent by an employee’s email account. Although security experts couldn’t verify whether sensitive patient data was actually accessed, they confirmed the hacker could have accessed that data.
More than 60,000 patients may have had their data stolen including their names, Social Security numbers, confidential health insurance information, dates of birth, and driver’s license numbers.
