Wisconsin Diagnostic Laboratories has started to notify 114,985 patients that some of their protected health information (PHI) was compromised in the American Medical Collection Agency’s (AMCA) breach from earlier this year. Data affected includes names, dates of birth, dates of service, names of lab or medical service providers, referring physicians’ names, balance owed and “other” medical information. Also, a few individuals may have had their financial information exposed. AMCA has already filed for Chapter 11 protection after it was reported that the breach affected Quest Diagnostics, LabCorp and BioReference.
