Attorney General James Reaches Agreement with Refuah Health Center to Invest $1.2 Million to Protect Patient Data and Pay $450,000 in Penalties to State
Briefly

New Yorkers should receive medical care and trust that their personal and health information is safe. This agreement will ensure that Refuah is taking the appropriate steps to protect patient data while also providing affordable health care. Strong data security is critically necessary in today's digital age and my office will continue to protect New Yorkers' data from companies with inadequate cybersecurity.
Refuah determined that attackers gained access to files containing names, addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers, driver's license numbers, dates of birth, financial account numbers, medical insurance numbers, and various health-related information. The OAG's investigation concluded that attackers were able to access this data because Refuah had failed to adopt appropriate data security practices to protect patients' personal and health information.
