Dr. Alexander, an Albuquerque chiropractor, is the latest business caught dumping private customer information into the trash. His dumpster had files containing his patients name, social security numbers, and birth dates. This is in violation of HIPAA laws regarding the proper disposal of customer records.
Apparently Dr. Alexander’s policy of buying a shredder and hoping his employees assign themselves extra work came to the same end as every other person who has tried it. If you don’t pay a manager to witness the shredding you need to hire a shredding service. The third option is to get ready for local news to show up with cameras an embarrassing questions.
