Notification of Potential Data Breach In December 2015 , Oceans Acquisitions , Inc. began notifying patients in the Abilene area about a possible data security breach that may have resulted in exposure of a limited amount of protected health information ( PHI ) . The potential exposure occurred when a laptop was stolen from an employee 's car . The laptop stored emails that potentially contained PHI such as names , dates of birth , medical record numbers , diagnoses , payer information and admission dates . No patient social security numbers or bank account information was included in the emails . Upon learning PHI may have been present on the device , Oceans immediately took steps to identify the individuals with the potential to be impacted . Although the laptop was stolen April 9 , 2015 , only recently , during an unrelated systems review did Oceans learn the device contained PHI . In May 2015 , Oceans validated that all portable devices and laptops have encryption technology active and in use . While there is no indication the personal information has been acquired or used , free identity protection resources are being provided to individuals who may have been impacted . Because it is possible the PHI contained on the laptops may have been improperly accessed , federal and state law requires Oceans to notify potentially affected patients of this incident . This notice in print media is being provided as notification to individuals for whom Oceans has out - of - date contact information and therefore can not be notified via letter . If you believe you have been affected , you should review your credit reports for accounts or creditor inquiries that you do not recognize . ;
