Refuah Health Center, based in Spring Valley, reported that the data breach affected 260,740 patients. In an April 29 notice, Refuah said an investigation revealed that a limited amount of personal or health information was compromised and that it wasn’t aware of any identity fraud that happened as a result.
The organization said it is notifying all of the individuals involved and offering complimentary credit monitoring and other fraud prevention services. Refuah said it has since installed a new cybersecurity firewall and undergone a vulnerability assessment.
