Oklahoma City-based SSM Health and SSM Health Bone and Joint Hospital patients may have been caught in a data breach impacting SSM's business partner Navvis, according to a Jan. 3 report from News9.

Navvis had a data breach in July 2023, determining that there was suspicious activity in its network between July 12 and July 25. 

The types of information affected include names, date of birth, Medicaid/Medicare ID numbers, health plan information, medical treatment information, medical record numbers, patient account numbers, case identification numbers, provider and physician information, health record information, and Social Security numbers. 

"Navvis, a business partner that provides health management services to SSM Health, has recently experienced a data security incident that may have resulted in the compromise of protected health information for a limited number of SSM Health patients. Navvis has sent notice letters to these impacted individuals offering free credit monitoring and identity protection services," SSM wrote in a statement on its website.
