The Lucile Packard Childrens Hospital at Stanford recently began notifying patients that a password-protected and apparently non-functional laptop was stolen from a secured area of the hospital in early May (h/t PHIprivacy.net). According to an announcement on the hospitals Web site, the laptop could potentially contain limited medical inforamtion on pediatric patients, though theres no evidence at this point the the data has been compromised. The medical information on the laptop pertained to operating room schedules, and could have included approximately 12,900 patients names, ages, medical record numbers, phone numbers, surgical proecures, and physicians, from a three-year period beginning in 2009.
