INDIANAPOLIS — Health care offers attractive growth opportunities for cyber
criminals looking to steal personal information, the hacking of a database
maintained by the second-largest US health insurer illustrates.

The latest breach, reported late Wednesday by the health insurer Anthem
Inc., follows a year in which more than 10 million people were affected by
health care data breaches — including hacking and accidents that exposed
personal information, like losing a laptop — according to a government
database. The numbers, compiled by the Department of Health and Human
Services, show that last year was the worst for health care hacking since
2011, when more than 11 million people were affected.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
