One Medical Seniors takes swift action to secure patient data
As part of our commitment to protecting patient information, we are sharing an update on a recent security event at One Medical Senior Health (formerly Iora Health), and the steps we have taken to protect patient information.
On June 13, we learned that an unauthorized person gained access to a third-party file storage system used to retain archived information of Iora Health, a company acquired by One Medical in 2021, which today operates as One Medical Senior Health. We immediately took action to deactivate the system and revoke all access, and we launched a thorough investigation.
Our investigation determined that certain patient files related to a limited number of legacy Iora Health and One Medical Seniors patients were accessed. No other One Medical patients were impacted by this event. This event was isolated to the third-party file storage system, and no other One Medical or Amazon systems were impacted.
We apologize for this event and are notifying affected patients directly. We take the security of patient information seriously and are implementing additional safeguards to prevent similar events in the future.
