The reference lab said on July 8, it discovered that an employee’s email account was compromised. The breach may have occurred as part of an effort to commit financial fraud and redirect customer payments from CSI to a third party.

The impacted files were all related to invoices sent to providers. Some contained patient names, birthdates and health insurance data, CSI said.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
