The Bradenton, FL-based gastroenterology healthcare provider Florida Digestive Health Specialists (FDHS) has recently started notifying more than 212,000 patients that some of their protected health information has been exposed in a December 2020 cyberattack.
Notification letters were sent to affected individuals on December 27, 2021, by attorney Jason M. Schwent of Clark Hill. The letters explain that suspicious activity was detected in an employee email account on December 16, 2020, which involved an unauthorized individual sending emails from that account.
