Bon Secours Kentucky

About this report

The covered entity (CE), Bon Secours Kentucky, discovered suspicious activity on its billing software from the user account of a former employee. The CE found it had not properly deactivated access, putting at risk the demographic and clinical information of 697 individuals. The CE provided breach notification to HHS, affected individuals, and posted substitute notice on its website. Media notice was not performed because the number of affected individuals in each state was less than 500. In response to the breach, the CE revised its access monitoring policy and centralized its access allowance procedures. OCR obtained assurances that the CE implemented the corrective actions listed above.
