Empire Blue Cross/Blue Shield information compromise...
I just got an email from my HR dept saying that Empire Blue cross Blue Shield had an information compromise, and 5 of our employees information was compromised. They didn't give our company the names of the ones compromised, however if we were, we'll get a letter in the mail from Empire explaining the situation.
Any one else use them for medical? I would ask your HR dept if they heard anything.
They are offering a free year of credit service to anyone affected.
Just a heads up to everyone!

something on the news the other day reported on how identity theft was now getting into medical insurance theft where they get a hold of your ID number and max out your benefits, prescriptions. At least they are on top of things.

Not related to EBC/BS, but I just got a letter in the mail from my former employer that some current and former associates had their information compromised. They sent instructions on signing up at no cost to me for Credit Monitoring Services for 1 year.

You probably won't be notified unless you were compromised, so i guess, no news is good news.
