What Happened?
Publicly available information indicates that Spokane Digestive Disease Center, P.S. was listed on the HHS Office for Civil Rights breach portal in connection with a reported security event. The structured filing data describes the matter as a hacking/IT incident and points to email as the location involved.
At this time, detailed incident-specific information from an official public notice was not available in the materials reviewed. That means important facts, such as when the event occurred, when it was discovered, and how many people may have been affected, are not confirmed in the public record reviewed for this page.
What Information Was Exposed?
The public materials reviewed do not identify the specific categories of information that may have been involved. No public list of affected data elements was available here.
Because this is a healthcare-related regulatory listing, readers may understandably be concerned about protected health information or other personal data. Still, the current public record does not confirm which information, if any, was exposed, so it is important not to assume more than the available sources state.
What Should You Do Next?
- Keep any notice you receive. If you received a letter or email, save a copy and review it carefully for any incident-specific details not yet available publicly.
- Monitor medical and financial activity. Watch for unfamiliar bills, explanation-of-benefits statements, account activity, or collection notices that you do not recognize.
- Check your credit reports. Review your reports for unexpected accounts or inquiries. If later information confirms that sensitive financial data was involved, consider a fraud alert or credit freeze.
- Strengthen account security. Change passwords for any accounts that share credentials with an email account or patient portal, and enable multi-factor authentication where available.
- Act quickly if something looks wrong. Report suspected identity theft or account misuse to the relevant institution right away. If you want to explore your legal options, fill out the form on this page to contact Strauss Borrelli PLLC.
Your Legal Rights
When a healthcare organization reports a security incident involving personal or health information, affected individuals may have rights under federal and state law, including the right to receive notice and information about available protective steps. Depending on the facts, some people may also have potential legal claims related to privacy, negligence, or costs tied to mitigating misuse.
Whether any claim exists depends on facts that are not yet fully public, including what information was involved, what safeguards were in place, and what harm, if any, followed. A lawyer can help evaluate those issues once more details are available, but this page does not provide individualized legal advice.
