A CD containing personal information on about 2.9 million Georgians has 
been lost, state officials said Tuesday.

The data include Social Security numbers, birthdates and addresses of 
people on Medicaid and PeachCare, but no medical information, according to 
Department of Community Health spokeswoman Dena Brummer. That agency runs

Affiliated Computer Services, a Dallas-based company which handles claims 
for the two state health programs, lost the CD, the state agency said. ACS 
will notify the people involved of the lost data.
