Peter,

The problem with naming the Data Management Company could be that if they
later find the data (tapes) are still at the Hospital, could they get
sued????

I remember a couple of years ago Bank of America lost some tapes, only to
find them months later still onsite in boxes under a desk.

From one of the articles " executives learned that the contractor had
received and destroyed only a portion of the files", so the 'Chain of
Custody' only shows 'a portion' of the data?  Maybe this is why the Hospital
is reluctant to name the Data Management Company.

Regards,

South Shore Hospital loses files on 800,000 - BostonHerald.com
The hospital refused to identify the data management company that lost the
files after they were shipped off-site in February.
