A directory created by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has exposed the Social Security numbers of a number of US healthcare providers.
The Trump administration introduced a new Medicare portal as part of plans to modernize US healthcare technology.
However, a database that was part of the directory was left publicly accessible, and exposed providers’ names and Social Security numbers.
In this case tho it’s the provider’s SSNs that were exposed.
Gotta wonder how mad they are at tRump.
