In March 2019, Frederick Regional Health System (now known as Frederick Health), which operates Frederick Memorial Hospital, issued a press release stating that hundreds of its patients had protected health information (PHI) exposed due to an electronic data breach. According to the press release, a Frederick Health system employee was the victim of a phishing attack whereby an unauthorized user gained entry to their email files. As a result, the illicit user had access to highly confidential patient records containing their names, social security numbers, and health information.
While Frederick Health officials indicated there was no evidence of PHI misuse, they offered a free year of credit monitoring to eligible patients as a precaution. Affected patients were also advised to “review statements they receive from their health insurers” for accuracy.
