Full breach record for Star Group, L.P. Health Benefits Plan →

Regulator's decision — not a breach notification

This record is a regulator's decision, not the organisation's own breach notice. Breach-notification fields (discovery date, notification clock) are structurally absent — what this source establishes is the outcome and the provisions the decision cites.

HHS OCR settled with SG Health Plan (Star Group, L.P. Health Benefits Plan) for $245,000 regarding a 2021 ransomware attack that impermissibly disclosed the PHI of 9,316 individuals. HHS's investigation indicated that SG Health Plan failed to conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information held by SG Health Plan. The resolution agreement includes a Corrective Action Plan requiring risk analysis, policy updates, and workforce training.
