Although the stolen laptop was encrypted, its password was inside the stolen work bag despite being against company policy.
TMG determined the laptop contained IRIS participants names, addresses, dates of births, participation in IRIS, services, Medicaid numbers and financial information. The Social Security numbers of at least 23 participants were also stored on the laptop.
All affected individuals were offered one free year of identity theft protection services. Participants who believe they were affected but do not receive a notification letter by April 9 should call the TMG IRIS Consultant Agency at 844-864-8987.
