"AmerisourceBergen Specialty Group (ABSG), a specialty pharmacy previously associated with US Bioservices Corp. (US Bio), notified 252,000 individuals of a data breach that involved protected health information.

The information that was breached was in ABSG’s possession due to its previous affiliation with US Bio. US Bio had previously disclosed the breach, but ABSG recently issued a substitute notice to further notify customers.

Upon learning of unauthorized network activity, ABSG’s parent company took steps to contain the incident and engage cybersecurity experts. The company later learned that information had been exfiltrated.

The impacted information included names, health insurance information, Medicare and Medicaid numbers, dates of birth and treatment and prescription information. ABSG said it currently has no evidence that any of the affected information has been publicly disclosed."
