PEAK Updates: Client Correspondence Issues

"The Governor's Office of Information Technology (OIT) CBMS team and its partners would like to share the latest information on client correspondence issues.

As you know, the PEAK Mail Center was not available between July 9 and July 28, 2015. However, we  would also like to inform you that this issue was tied to a breach that occurred between May 25 and July 5, 2015 in which client correspondence notices were mistakenly mailed to unintended recipients. It has been determined that a HIPAA breach impacted 1,622 CBMS clients and a social security number breach affected 1,258 CBMS clients. The technical error that caused notices to be mailed to unintended recipients was fixed on July 5 to prevent the problem from continuing. Please click here for the details on this important information." [Source: PEAK Colorado]
