Kaiser Permanente

Four years ago the nation's largest nonprofit health insurer began a test program to make some member's medical records available electronically to physicians, and to give members access to their own records over the Internet. Confidential patient information, including addresses, phone numbers and lab tests were available for public viewing and Kaiser did not remove the site until it was brought to the attention of federal authorities in January 2005. California state regulators fined a division of Kaiser Permanente $200,000 for the security breach. (Jun-21-05) [LOS ANGELES TIMES]
