HealthTexas Provider Network also affected by phishing scheme

Posted on May 9, 2014 by Dissent

So I had no sooner finished posting the Baylor phishing incident in Texas, where I questioned whether that phishing incident might be related to a successful phishing attempt involving physicians in the Franciscan Medical Group, when I discovered a third phishing incident that also occurred on January 23. This one involved the HealthTexas Provider Network and affected 2,742 patients.

HealthTexas Provider Network is part of Baylor Health, and they posted an identical notice to the one posted for Baylor Regional Medical Center at Plano.

It seems clear that the Baylor Regional Medical Center at Plano and HealthTexas Provider Network reports are linked, as they are both part of Baylor Health, but it’s not clear whether the Franciscan Health breach is linked or not.
