Report ID: PSETS0000110447, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Reported Entity: MARTINEZ CA - 612
Issue:
A VA social worker reported that she received a call from an employee at the US Franchise Tax Board who reported that he received a fax in error regarding a Report of Suspected Dependent Adult/Elder abuse containing Veteran A's full name, full social security number, full date of birth, home address and phone number for a patient. The social worker stated that the fax number was entered incorrectly which caused the information to be sent to the US Franchise tax board instead of the Adult Protective Services.
Outcome:
10/16/14: The Incident Resolution Service Team has determined that Veteran A will be sent a letter offering credit protection services.
