Why do you think that employee theft is such a serious problem in medical facilities

The ramifications can range from financial to medical. Not only do medical records usually contain payment and billing information, leaving credit card information exposed, but they also often contain sensitive data like Social Security Numbers and information that could enable a fraudster to obtain medical services under the victim’s identity. If the perpetrator’s medical information mixes with the victim’s, she could receive medication to which she is allergic, or her record may contain the incorrect blood type. The information can also be sold on the black market for a hefty price and drugs can be given to unfit users.
