HHS Penalizes Philadelphia Healthcare Organization For HIPAA Violation

The Office of Civil Rights (OCR) at the US Department of Health and Human Services has taken few steps to enforce HIPAA. The OCR recently reached a settlement with Catholic Health Care Services of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia (CHCS) over the 2014 theft of a mobile device containing unencrypted protected health data on over 400 hundred patients at a nursing home. The settlement requires CHCS to pay a $650,000 fine and adopt a corrective action plan to protect against something similar happening again.”]
