"Designed Receivable Solutions Data Breach Impacts 585,000 People"

Healthcare revenue cycle management services provider Designed Receivable Solutions (DRS) has recently informed authorities that the number of individuals impacted by a recent data breach has increased to 585,000.  The company detected an intrusion in its network on January 22, 2024. An investigation revealed that hackers had accessed and stolen files from its systems, including protected health information and personally identifiable information.  The company noted that compromised information includes names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, health insurance data, and medical information. The company’s data breach notification includes a list of over a dozen healthcare organizations whose customers are impacted by the incident.  DRS initially announced the breach impacted less than 130,000 individuals.  In April it informed the Maine Attorney General that the number increased to 498,000.  On Thursday, the Maine AG published an updated notification that shows that the number of affected people has increased to 585,000. Impacted individuals are being offered identity protection services at no cost for a period of 12 months. It is currently unclear if the company was the victim of a ransomware attack because no known cybercrime gang has taken credit for the attack yet.
