April 22, 2019 – Independent researcher Justin Paine discovered the database last month. He said it contained nearly 5 million documents involving what he estimates at about 145,000 patients. Those records included names along with other specific details including the types of treatment they received, treatment dates and how much they cost. After his discovery, he reached out to the website hosting company and that database has since been taken down. This certainly isn’t the only potential data breach involving medical records. There have already been at least two over the past couple of months, one involving a medical software company and the other a company that develops and markets medical devices and software.
