AG Curtis Hill files first multistate HIPAA-related data breach lawsuit

0

Attorney General Curtis Hill announced today that he is leading a 12-state federal lawsuit against a Fort Wayne web-based electronic health records company that allegedly sustained a data breach compromising the data of more than 3.9 million people.

The lawsuit alleges that Medical Informatics Engineering Inc. and NoMoreClipboard LLC (collectively “MIE”) violated provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) as well as state claims including Unfair and Deceptive Practice laws, Notice of Data Breach statutes, and state Personal Information Protection Acts.

Between May 7, 2015, and May 26, 2015, hackers infiltrated WebChart, a web application run by MIE. The hackers stole the electronic Protected Health Information (“ePHI”) of more than 3.9 million individuals – including individual names, telephone numbers, mailing addresses, usernames, hashed passwords, security questions and answers, spousal information (name and potentially dates of birth), email addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, lab results, health insurance policy information, diagnosis, disability codes, doctors’ names, medical conditions, and children’s names and birth statistics.

Today’s filing marks the first time state attorneys general have joined together to pursue a HIPAA-related data breach case in federal court.

“We will always act to protect Hoosier consumers in cases such as this one,” Attorney General Hill said. “We make it our standard practice to pursue all penalties and remedies available under the law on behalf of our citizens, and we hope our proactive measures serve to motivate all companies doing business in Indiana to exercise the highest ethics and utmost diligence.”

UE Takes On Red Wolves 

With a pair of home victories under their belts in the last five days, the University of Evansville men’s basketball team travels to Arkansas State for a 7 p.m. game on Tuesday in Jonesboro.

Last Time Out

– On Saturday, the Aces earned a 65-49 win over Albion at the Ford Center; four players notched 11 points apiece to lead the squad; Marty Hill, K.J. Riley, Dainius Chatkevicius and Noah Frederking each posted 11 tallies

– John Hall led the team with 12 rebounds as the Aces outrebounded the Britons by a 50-34 final; it was the first time UE had 50 rebounds since 12/12/15 against Mississippi Valley State

– The Aces defense held Albion to just 27.1% shooting

Takeaways from Albion

– Evansville improved to 4-0 at the Ford Center with the win; it is the fourth year in a row UE has won its first four home games and the fifth time in the last six years

– With 12 caroms, John Hall has now led the team in rebounding in each of the last four games

– After missing its first 14 shots of the game, UE was 22-of-44 (50%) for the remainder of the contest

– The Aces outscored Albion by a 32-4 final in the paint, 17-7 off turnovers and 10-0 on the fast break

– UE’s bench has outscored that of its opponent in five-straight games

– Since missing the first three games, Dainius Chatkevicius has increased his scoring in all four games

Third Time is the Charm

– With 12 rebounds against the Britons, John Hall improved his season average to 8.1 per game, 4th in the MVC

– Hall has recorded 10.5 rebounds per game in the last four contest

– Resetting his career scoring mark has become a habit for Hall, who did so for the third time this season against Wyoming

– Hall finished with a career-high 21 points while adding 11 rebounds against the Cowboys en route to his first double-double

– As a redshirt freshman last season, Hall scored 7 or more points just four times; so far this year – he is 6-for-7

King of the Hill

– Sophomore Noah Frederking has quietly improved his season average to 11.9 points per game, ranking third on the team

– After going scoreless in the opener at Illinois, Frederking has posted 13.8 points per game in his last six contests

– He is also shooting 54.9% from the floor and 46.7% from long range.

– Over his last five games, Frederking is averaging 14.6 points per game

Scouting the Opponent

– Arkansas State enters Tuesday’s contest with a record of 2-5 with its wins this season coming against Missouri Baptist and Gardner-Webb

– Ty Cockfield is their leading scorer, checking in with 21.1 points per game; he is a 53.6% shooter and has drained 48.6% of his 3-point tries

– Last time out against Lehigh, Cockfield posted 30 points as the Red Wolves fell by a final of 82-70

– Gillard Grantham leads ASU with 6.1 rebounds
