BREACH: Highlands-Cashiers Hospital

"The hospital says a company hired to handle healthcare information, TruBridge, made a misconfiguration that put patients' names, addresses, treatments, even some social security numbers at risk between May 2012 and September of this year."

This company is still leaking information. This was confirmed last on 11/9/2014 while we were on an audit in Western North Carolina. A quick check today indicates information is still being leaked. 

It should be noted that the breach is much larger than what has been reported.
