"Johns Hopkins Worker, Patient Data Lost"
Feb 7th - 10:42pm
By ALEX DOMINGUEZ Associated Press Writer
BALTIMORE (AP) -
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Backup tapes containing personal data on more than 135,000 Johns Hopkins patients, employees and retirees were lost by a contractor but are believed to have been destroyed, the hospital and university said Wednesday.
The missing tapes contained Social Security numbers and, in some cases, bank account information for current and former employees of Johns Hopkins University.
One tape contained the names, birth dates, mother's maiden names and other information for 83,000 Johns Hopkins Hospital patients, but no Social Security numbers, addresses or medical or financial information, according to an e-mail alert sent to patients by the university and the hospital.
"We regret this occurrence and emphasize that the best evidence to date is that the tape was not stolen, nor was any information on it misused," the alert to patients said.
Letters are also being sent to all affected Johns Hopkins University employees, current and former, and to all affected Johns Hopkins Hospital patients, except for the relatively few for whom addresses are not available, the statement said."
