OCR opened an investigation of the covered entity (CE) after it reported two unencrypted laptops were stolen that contained the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 549 individuals. The ePHI included names, dates of birth, diagnostic test results, and social security numbers. Upon discovery of the breach, the CE filed a police report to recover the stolen items. As a result of OCR's investigation, the CE installed security cameras and new door locks and changed the codes to the outside entrance keypad lock. The CE also encrypted laptop computers.
