Some patient information was contained in the affected emails, but it’s unclear if that information was accessed, according to Henry Ford Health. This initial discovery was made on May 16. The affected information might have included patients’ name, gender, date of birth, age, lab results, procedure type, diagnosis, date of service, telephone number, medical record number and/or internal tracking number.
