Just a few weeks ago, Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center learned a hard lesson. If you didn’t see the news reports, the N.Y.-based healthcare provider notified over 130,000 individuals that their records — including diagnostic information, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, and other information of use to identity thieves — was potentially lost. The total impact to the institution is difficult to quantify. Obviously no organization wants the negative press. It’s the kind of thing that loses patients and makes the institution less appealing when trying to attract physicians.
