“At least nine healthcare organizations recently reported a vendor data breach tied to Adelanto HealthCare Ventures (AHCV), a consulting company that specializes in Medicaid reimbursements. “
“According to the breach notices, AHCV became aware of suspicious activity in its digital environment on November 5, 2021. Further investigation revealed that an unauthorized party had accessed two employee email accounts via a phishing scam. “
“AHCV initially believed that no protected health information (PHI) was impacted. However, on August 19, 2022, the company determined that PHI may have been involved. Texas-based St. Luke’s Health notified 16,906 individuals of the AHCV breach back in November 2022. “
“The email accounts largely contained the patient names, facility names, age, patient account numbers, admission and discharge dates, insurance carriers, and balance information. “
