According to recent news reports, Quest Diagnostics allegedly suffered a data breach which compromised nearly 11.9 million customer’s information. The suit claims that the breach may have been a result of malicious activity on the payment pages of the American Medical Collection Agency, a third-party collections vendor for Quest. The compromised information includes credit card numbers, medical information and personal data from the site.
Quest Diagnostics claims that the data breach dated back to August 1, 2018 until May 31, 2019 but noted that it has “not been able to verify the accuracy of the information.” This is the second breach affecting Quest customers in three years. In 2016, the company said 34,000 patients had data stolen by hackers.
