Resource Corporation of America Houston medical billing data security notice

Yes — Resource Corporation of America (“RCA”) confirmed unauthorized access to certain systems. The Houston-area medical billing business associate posted a preliminary notice stating it learned of suspicious activity on December 17, 2025, and that unauthorized actors accessed systems and copied files between December 9–17, 2025. Potentially involved data may include names, addresses, DOB, SSNs, health insurance, and medical diagnosis / treatment information.

HHS OCR lists the entity (TX, Business Associate) with a February 13, 2026 submission: Hacking/IT Incident, Network Server, 501 individuals, under investigation. Treat 501 cautiously — HIPAA Journal notes many February 2026 rows use 500/501 as placeholders until reviews finish.

Ransomware groups Medusa and Qilin publicly claimed RCA; RCA’s notice does not name those actors. No Texas federal “Data Breach” consolidation appeared in our CourtListener pass for this entity — coverage here is OCR + org notice driven.
