The three insurers said nearly 4,400 of their customers were affected or potentially affected by the incident, which involved unauthorised access to Alliance Medinet’s membership database.
The potentially compromised information includes names, personal identification numbers and contact details, parent company Alliance Healthcare Group said in a bourse filing on Saturday (Oct 24).
