August 20, 2026 – Federman & Sherwood, a national consumer protection law firm, is investigating the Silver Summit Medical Corporation dba Digestive Disease Center and Heart Vascular & Leg Center (“SSMC”) data breach following a notification filed with the California Attorney General.
According to the notice, on or about July 20, 2026, SSMC learned that a cybersecurity incident involving one of its third-party vendors affected personal or protected health information received by SSMC. The investigation determined that certain data was acquired without authorization from the vendor’s systems between November 27, 2025 and November 30, 2025.
The affected data includes individuals’ names and additional personal information. The public version of the California notice does not identify the specific additional data elements involved. Because SSMC states that the incident affected personal or protected health information, individuals receiving notices should carefully review their letters to determine what information was involved in their particular case.
SSMC states that it is reviewing its existing policies and procedures following the incident. The company is also offering affected individuals 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring and identity restoration services through Cyberscout, a TransUnion company, including single-bureau credit monitoring, credit reports, credit scores, and proactive fraud assistance.
