Family Health Centers of Southern Indiana (“FHCSI”) disclosed a data security incident involving unauthorized access to a network system that may have exposed sensitive personal and medical information. According to a June 22, 2026 notice, the organization determined that certain files may have been accessed by an unauthorized party following suspicious network activity discovered earlier in the year.
The breach potentially involves highly sensitive patient data, including Social Security numbers, health insurance details, and medical information. While FHCSI has not reported confirmed misuse of the data, the nature of the exposed information creates a significant risk of identity theft and privacy harm for affected individuals.
FHCSI reported that it first became aware of suspicious activity within its network on or about January 16, 2026. The organization immediately activated its incident response plan and launched an investigation with cybersecurity support to determine the scope of the incident.
The investigation later determined that certain files within its system may have been accessed without authorization. FHCSI conducted a detailed review of the affected files to identify the types of data involved and the individuals impacted.
After completing its investigation, FHCSI began issuing notifications to affected individuals via U.S. First Class Mail on June 18, 2026. A substitute notice was also issued to ensure broader awareness.
In response to the incident, FHCSI stated it is enhancing security controls, implementing additional safeguards, and improving internal procedures to reduce the risk of future incidents. The organization is also offering credit monitoring and identity theft protection services to individuals whose Social Security numbers may have been impacted.
The unauthorized access likely occurred sometime after the initial detection of suspicious activity, but the exact access window has not been publicly specified.
According to FHCSI’s notice, the following types of information may have been exposed:
Because this data includes both financial identifiers and protected health information, affected individuals may be at increased risk of identity theft, insurance fraud, and medical identity misuse.
