On July 23, 2024, PCMI discovered that it was impacted by Progress Software's 2023 data breach.

Progress's breach was caused by the exploitation of a security vulnerability in its MOVEit file transfer application. PCMI, upon that it was impacted, then worked with third-party cybersecurity experts to conduct a comprehensive review of the data at issue to determine whether personal information was involved. This process was completed on October 23, 2024. PCMI's review determined that the potentially impacted information included the following types of information: name, date of birth, treatment information and diagnosis information.

PCMI has provided written notice of this incident via First Class U.S. Mail to individuals for whom PCMI has been provided a valid address. In response to this incident, PCMI notified law enforcement and implemented additional security measures to further minimize the risk of a similar incident occurring in the future.
