      On August 15, 2022 Aesthetic Dermatology had a security breach. I was notified on October 10th by letter. This is the 4th time my medical information has been compromised. In each of the other 3 instances I was offered one year of free credit monitoring service. AD did not offer this but instead listed organizations where patients could opt for this service at their own expense. I called to request that they provide this service gratis. They refused but said they would check with a supervisor and call me back. I never heard from them so I called a second time - again they refused. I believe they should be required to provide this service free of charge to all their patients. Afterall, they were the ones who failed to protect our information

      Dear *******************

       

      Thank you for forwarding the correspondence you received regarding the captioned complaint.  Please be advised that we believe that the issue has been resolved, and it is my sincere hope that *** * agrees.  Due to HIPAA constraints, I can’t get too specific, but I did contact the patient, provided a code and the URL to the site, and walked through the process of getting set-up for account monitoring.  I also provided *** * with my direct contact information (also listed below) and welcome her to contact me directly if I can be of assistance in anyway going forward.

      To provide some background, a staff member was in the process of obtaining a code, but unfortunately, the process was slower than optimal and was also poorly communicated to *** *.  When I received your letter, I personally called *** *, we discussed her valid frustration, and she gave me good insight into how we can improve the process on our end.  I am appreciative to you both for bringing this to my attention; it has genuinely helped us improve our process.  Please feel free to email or call if you would like any additional information.
