Healthcare Data Breach Claims

What is a Healthcare Data Breach?

A healthcare data breach refers to an incident in which sensitive personal health information (PHI) is exposed or accessed by unauthorised individuals. This can happen in various ways, including:

• Cyberattacks: Hackers may target healthcare providers to gain access to sensitive patient information, often for financial gain or to commit fraud.
• Human error: Accidental disclosures or mistakes by healthcare professionals or administrative staff can result in a breach of sensitive data.
• Inadequate security measures: Healthcare providers or organizations may fail to implement sufficient security protocols, making it easier for hackers or unauthorised individuals to access patient data.
• Lost or stolen devices: Devices such as laptops, smartphones, or USB drives containing healthcare information may be lost or stolen, exposing patient data.

If you suspect that your healthcare data has been compromised, it’s crucial to take immediate action. HPA Solicitors Ltd can guide you through the legal process and help you seek compensation for the damages caused by the breach.
