Hackers may have accessed patient information during a cyberattack on the computer system at Whitman Hospital & Medical Clinics in Colfax, which occurred in February. A computer forensic firm has indicated that confidential patient information, including Social Security numbers and financial account details, may have been accessed. In response, the hospital is providing free credit monitoring and identity protection for patients whose information may have been affected. Initially, hospital officials stated there was no evidence that patient personal data was compromised in this incident.
