CareCloud disclosed a breach affecting 3.7 million people, according to the US Department of Health and Human Services breach tracker.

The company had initially reported about 350,000 affected individuals in July; the tracker updated this week showed a total roughly ten times larger. The article says attackers accessed one of CareCloud's AWS environments between March 10 and March 16 after a network intrusion, and investigators found data had been exfiltrated from databases.

Reported data includes personal identifiers, insurance information and medical records.
