Children's Medical Center of Dallas will pay a $3.2 million settlement—the sixth-largest in history—for failing to comply with HIPAA.
The alleged multiple offenses date back to 2009 when a BlackBerry was lost at Dallas-Fort Worth airport. It was carrying about 3,800 patients' records. A more recent incident in 2013 involves the theft of an unencrypted laptop computer with 2,462 patients' records from the hospital.
