According to a Navvis & Co. press release, Navvis, which provides health management services to SSM, was the victim of a cyberattack from July 12-25, 2023. SSM Health patient data shared with Navvis by SSM was then accessed by hackers.

The breach largely targeted patient demographic and healthcare-related information, though unauthorized persons leaked certain individuals’ Social Security numbers. 

Patients affected in the data breach will receive notice from Navvis by mail.
