Jackson Health: Investigation into NFL player's leaked patient records 'ongoing'

More than two months after the chief executive of Jackson Health System promised an "aggressive internal investigation" into the unauthorized release of the medical chart for New York Giants pass rusher Jason Pierre-Paul — a possible violation of federal privacy laws — hospital officials have yet to explain how the breach occurred, who was responsible for the leak or what they are doing to prevent such incidents in the future. Pierre-Paul, whose leaked medical chart revealed that surgeons had amputated his right index finger, made headlines again this week when he failed to reach a contract agreement with the Giants, largely because of concerns over the extent of the NFL player's hand injuries, according to ESPN.
