Saint Alphonsus owner says patient information compromised in data breach

BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — The owner of Saint Alphonsus Hospital system says some patient and donor information may have been compromised in a security breach.

The notifications will continue until all impacted individuals are notified.

"Trinity Health continues to work with Blackbaud as they take measures to further secure the information in their care.
