Records stolen from LabCorp Patient Service Center
By Dissent, September 21, 2010

LabCorp Patient Service Center in California notified Health & Human 
Services (HHS) that 507 patients were affected by theft of their protected 
health information.  The records were in paper format, and were reportedly 
stolen on or about August 2.

I do not see any statement on LabCorp.s web site.  The company has a 
number of locations and it is not clear where this theft occurred.
