From the Blogosphere Lost Records a Day Shows Doctors Are Blasé
Health Care Privacy Challenges
Jan. 10, 2013 07:00 AM
I always wanted to write, ‘In the USA Today, today’ in the Life section snapshots sidebar there is an interesting stat from a December 2012 Ponemon Institute study of 80 health care organizations showing that the data lost or stolen most often are our medical records at 48% and billing/insurance records at 48% followed by payment details at 24%. Multiple responses were allowed which is why the percentages break 100. What is more alarming is that over the last two years, 94% of health care organizations have been breached at least once and 45% have had 5 or more incidents! What is sad is that over half (54%) have little or no confidence that they can detect patient data loss.
I know many of us often delay or avoid the doctors for fear that we might get diagnosed with something terrible but maybe now we’ll avoid with the notion, ‘eh, I’m healthy and I don’t want to be afflicted with identity theft disease.’ Ask your doctor about ITD – common side effects include increased heart rate, depression, headaches, loss of appetite and in some patients, bank account drainage. Why risk it? Heck, the last time my wife went to her now previous doctor and asker her about how she complies with HIPAA, the doctor didn’t even know what that was! How can that be? How can a practicing physician be unaware of HIPAA? That’s like a bank unaware of PCI or the numerous other financial regulatory requirements. But is it ‘unaware’ or ‘just don’t care.’
The primary causes of health care data breach include lost or stolen devices along with employee or 3rd party mistakes and they only learned of the breach because of an audit. Data gets moved around amongst various parties for multiple reasons it is often hard to determine who and where leaked it.
Suggestions include appointing senior security roles reporting to the board, securing mobile devices, using encryption, develop breach plans that are ready and tested, education and as more health care organizations turn to the cloud, understand and control that risk – whatever it may be.
Oh, and have a seat, we’ll be with you in a moment.

Lisa Larson, Vice President of Enterprise Cloud Solutions of Rackspace Hosting Live From New York City
In the old world of IT, if you didn't have hardware capacity or the budget to buy more, your project was dead in the water. Budget constraints can leave some of the best, most creative and most ingenious innovations on the cutting room floor. It's a true dilemma for developers and innovators – why spend the time creating, when a project could be abandoned in a blink? That was the old world. In the new world of IT, developers rule. They have access to resources they can spin up instantly. A hybrid cloud ignites innovation and empowers developers to focus on what they need. A hybrid cloud blends the best of all worlds, public cloud, private cloud and dedicated servers to fit the needs of developers and offer the ideal environment for each app and workload without the constraints of a one-size-fits-all cloud.
