Clover Health says hackers stole personal and health information after socially engineering access to three employee accounts in July 2026. The Jersey City health insurer told HHS that 138,677 people were affected. Exposed data includes names, dates of birth, insurance identifiers, and account identification numbers; the company had previously disclosed the intrusion in an SEC filing.
Why it matters: Health and insurance data can be reused for identity theft, medical fraud, and convincing phishing. Affected members should watch for insurer impersonation, review insurance activity, and follow any notice from Clover Health about protective steps.
