Description

Oregon health officials are scrambling to protect patient data after a federal ruling allowed some Medicaid information to be shared with immigration authorities. A federal judge in California ruled last week that the nation's health department may share basic information about Medicaid recipients who are living in the U.S. without authorization.

Oregon health officials say they’re seeking ways to safeguard personally sensitive data of some immigrants who receive public health benefits after a federal court cleared the way for immigration authorities to access their information.
