| Social Security numbers mistakenly released by CoverTN Posted on May 26, 2007 _ Some Social Security numbers have been mistakenly released by the state’s new Cover Tennessee health insurance program. A computer error caused some applicants’ Social Security numbers to become visible to others. About 280 applicants from mid-February to early March may have been affected. Officials said they were alerted to the glitch by one applicant and fixed the problem. The error did not affect information submitted to BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, which administers the plan, and no personal health information was disclosed. Cover Tennessee was launched in March. The program is limited to workers employed by participating small businesses. |
