About this report
The medical practice of James R. Etzkorn, M.D., a covered entity (CE), suffered a ransomware attack beginning September 5, 2018, causing the attacker to potentially have access to billing records for 6,845 individuals. The CE provided breach notification to HHS. On November 13-19, 2018, when the CE provided individual notification regarding the event, it inadvertently addressed the notification letters to the wrong affected individuals, resulting in a second breach affecting the same 6,845 individuals. OCR has consolidated all issues from the initial breach into an investigation of the subsequent breach.
