The covered entity (CE), Dr. Hoyman Hong, reported that an employee sent an email that contained the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of 720 individuals without using the blind carbon copy feature. The ePHI involved included names and email addresses. The CE notified HHS, affected individuals, and the media. In response to the breach, the CE retrained its workforce members and strengthened its administrative safeguards to better protect its ePHI.
