Woodlawn Hospital Providers has confirmed a data breach affecting sensitive patient and personal information. The incident, which occurred in late June 2025, may have exposed the personal data of an undisclosed number of individuals, including Social Security numbers and medical records.
Woodlawn Hospital Providers Data Breach Investigation
On June 30, 2025, Woodlawn Hospital learned that its internal computer systems had been accessed by an unauthorized third party. The hospital immediately launched an internal investigation and took swift action to secure its network. This investigation confirmed that files had been copied without authorization between June 25 and June 30, 2025.
Over the following months, Woodlawn Hospital worked to identify the specific files involved and the individuals affected. By November 13, 2025, they completed a thorough review and began issuing notifications to impacted individuals.
The stolen information includes not only personal identifiers like names and addresses, but also sensitive medical and insurance data. This type of breach is particularly concerning because it involves protected health information (PHI), which can be used in identity theft, medical fraud, or phishing attacks.
In response, Woodlawn Hospital has implemented additional cybersecurity measures and notified federal law enforcement. They are also offering victims complimentary credit monitoring and identity restoration services through Epiq. However, affected individuals must enroll manually—enrollment is not automatic.
Despite no confirmed misuse of the data so far, the exposure of such detailed information warrants serious concern.
