American medical coding and tumblr beauty of eroticismrisk assessment firm Episource confirmed in a notice that it was affected by a data breach earlier this year.

On February 6, Episource discovered unusual activity on its computers, it reported in the notice. It began investigating, involving a special team and law enforcement, and learned that a cybercriminal viewed and took copies of data between January 27 and February 6.

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights, this data breach has impacted around 5.4 million people. Episource submitted the breach to HHS on June 6.

While the data seen and taken may not have been the same for everyone, the information involved in the breach was:

• Contact information: Names, addresses, phone numbers, and emails

• Other personal information: Social Security numbers or dates of birth

• Health insurance data: Health plans/policies, insurance companies, member/group ID numbers, and Medicaid/Medicare/government payer ID numbers

• Health data: medical record numbers, doctors, diagnoses, medicines, test results, images, care, and treatment

The notice states that financial, banking, and credit card information "largely were not impacted." Episource began notifying impacted customers of the individuals and data impacted on April 23. It warns that individuals should monitor their explanations of benefits received from their health care plans and their banking statements.

If individuals notice suspicious activity on their bank or credit card statements, or receive notices for health services they haven't received, they should report it to the relevant authority (such as their credit card company or doctor). If individuals believe they're victims of a crime, they should contact law enforcement, the notice states. Basically, watch out for healthcare scams.
