Baylor Miraca Genetics Laboratories (d/b/a Baylor Genetics), a Business Associate based in TX, reported a Hacking/IT Incident involving email phishing of several workforce members. The OCR narrative states 208,000 individuals' ePHI was affected (names, addresses, phone numbers, health insurance information, and clinical diagnoses), although the structured 'individuals affected' field on the OCR portal lists 1,240 — a notable discrepancy. The covered entity notified HHS, affected individuals, and the media; provided substitute notice; implemented additional administrative and technical safeguards; and retrained staff. OCR obtained assurances of corrective action.
Affected (this filing): 208,000
