Kentucky reports Medicaid data breach affecting members
Original: CHFS reports security breach with Ky. Medicaid member information
Kentucky's Cabinet for Health and Family Services has reported a security breach involving information belonging to state Medicaid members. Details about how many people were affected and what data was exposed have not been made fully clear, but the cabinet is notifying those impacted. The disclosure raises concerns about the protection of sensitive health and personal information held by state agencies.
Why now: A state agency disclosing a breach of Medicaid members' personal data naturally draws public concern about identity theft and data security.
