Attackers were able to access certain systems and encrypted certain files, causing personal information to be affected, according to a news release from Azura Vascular Care. 

Information that may have been impacted includes patient names, mailing addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, insurance policies, diagnoses and treatment information, and other demographic and contact information.

The company worked with a third-party forensic firm to investigate the incident. 

The attacks are believed to have started on or before Sept. 27, 2023, the release said.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
