In April 2017, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced a $400,000 HIPAA settlement with a federally qualified health center. Although the health center responded appropriately to an email phishing incident affecting over 3,000 patient records, OCR found that the health center failed to complete the required risk assessment process and it failed to implement any corresponding risk management plans to address the risks and vulnerabilities identified in a risk analysis.
