Settlement in Tampa General Hospital Insider Breach Lawsuit

Tampa General Hospital agrees to pay a total of just $10,000 to plaintiffs in a data breach class action lawsuit. Plaintiffs argued that a series of breaches involving insiders at the organization was the result of the hospital inadequately safeguarding patient data. The lawsuit alleged that unauthorized access to the hospital’s computer systems put 1,179 individuals at risk for identity theft. To file for a piece of the settlement, individuals affected must demonstrate an “actual loss” due to the breaches. An attorney representing the plaintiffs says the case spotlights “a continuing problem” in many hospitals of insiders accessing data without authorization.”]
