EvergreenHealth was notified of a data security incident experienced by Eye Care Leaders, a third-party provider of the myCare Integrity electronic medical record platform that is used by the EvergreenHealth Eye Care Clinic.

On March 1, 2022, Eye Care Leaders notified EvergreenHealth that Eye Care Leaders experienced a data security incident that may have resulted in unauthorized access to some EvergreenHealth patient information. According to Eye Care Leaders, on or around December 4, 2021, an unauthorized party accessed myCare Integrity data and deleted databases and system configuration files. According to Eye Care Leaders, upon identifying the activity, Eye Care Leaders' incident response team immediately stopped the unauthorized access and began investigating the incident. Notably, this incident did not involve unauthorized access to any EvergreenHealth systems.

On March 28, 2022, Eye Care Leaders informed EvergreenHealth that Eye Care Leaders' investigation is ongoing and that it does not know whether or not any EvergreenHealth patient information was involved in the incident. Although Eye Care Leaders has not confirmed that any EvergreenHealth patient information was accessed as a result of the incident, they have informed EvergreenHealth that they cannot rule out that possibility. This information may have included patient names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, and information regarding care received at EvergreenHealth Eye Care Clinic.

The myCare Integrity electronic medical record platform only contained medical information regarding care received in the EvergreenHealth Eye Care Clinic. Any non-Eye Care Clinic medical services received from EvergreenHealth would not have been in the myCare Integrity electronic medical record platform. EvergreenHealth patients' personal financial information, including banking information, credit card number(s) or Social Security number, was not involved.

On April 22, 2022, EvergreenHealth began mailing letters to patients whose information may have been involved in the incident. We have also established a dedicated, toll-free call center to answer questions that patients may have. If patients have questions, they should call 833-675-2107, Monday through Friday, between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Pacific Time. We recommend that patients whose information may have been involved in this incident review the statements they receive from their healthcare providers. If they see any services that were not received, they should contact the provider immediately.

EvergreenHealth regrets any concern or inconvenience the Eye Care Leaders data security incident may cause. EvergreenHealth is examining its vendor relationship with Eye Care Leaders and evaluating their security safeguards.

You may be referred directly to the ICU from the emergency department or transferred from other unit. Common conditions treated in the ICU include acute respiratory distress illnesses (such as COVID), septic shock, stroke, trauma, recovery from complicated surgeries and other potentially life threatening conditions.

The nurses' stations provide a line-of-sight view of each patient to maintain visual awareness of patients' needs and well-being. The patient's vital signs and telemetry readings are visible to staff from multiple locations, minimizing the need to enter the patient's room and interrupt their rest.

The ICU can be a frightening and uncertain time for family and friends to see people they care about being monitored and supported by machines. Our new ICU hopes to alleviate some of that anxiety with its bright, airy spaces and thoughtfully designed rooms.

Our patient rooms have a comfy space where a family member may stay with their loved one. There's also a spacious family area that offer a separate place to rest and recharge, with access to a nearby nutrition station and phone charging station.
