Johns Hopkins Tells Patients: Employee Stole Data for Fraud

Baltimore’s Johns Hopkins Hospital is warning more than 10,000 patients about a data theft. The hospital linked a woman working in the hospital’s patient registration area to fraud. Law enforcement has identified 46 victims of the scam, 31 of whom were linked to Johns Hopkins. Hospital says it has fired the employee it suspects of this latest fraud and expects that she will be indicted. Most of the 10,200 patients and former patients being notified are thought to be at “extremely low risk” of fraud.”]
