What happened
One Medical said it learned on June 13, 2026 that an unauthorized person had gained access to a third-party file storage system. The system held archived information for One Medical Seniors, the unit that used to be Iora Health. According to the company, the person could reach patient files in that system between June 8 and June 11, 2026.
What was exposed
The company describes the files as demographic and clinical records from legacy systems. It says the affected patients are legacy Iora Health and One Medical Seniors patients at certain clinics, and that other One Medical patients and its electronic medical record system were not involved. It has not published a count of affected patients.
Demographic records can include the details that identify you, and clinical records describe your care. Together they give scammers material for convincing phone calls, texts and letters that mention a real clinic or a real condition. Medical details are also hard to change once they're out.
The company's response
One Medical says it secured the system, revoked access, notified law enforcement and is contacting affected patients directly. If you were a patient at one of the legacy clinics, look for that letter and read it for what it says was in your file and whether it offers credit monitoring or identity protection.
What this means for you
If you get a call, email or text about your care, your insurance or a bill, don't use the contact details in the message. Look up the number on your card or the clinic's own site. If the letter says Social Security numbers or insurance details were involved, the FTC's steps for that apply: a credit freeze and a close look at your statements.

What to do if you were in it
- 1
Read the notice you received
If you were a One Medical Seniors or Iora Health patient, the company is notifying people directly. The letter says what was in your file and what protection it offers. The FTC recommends taking free credit monitoring if it's offered.
- 2
Be wary of calls and messages about your care
Scammers use real medical details to sound credible. Don't act on a call, email or text you didn't start. Hang up and call the number on your insurance card or the clinic's official site.
- 3
Check your insurance statements
Read your explanation of benefits and bills for services you didn't receive. Report anything odd to your insurer.
- 4
Freeze your credit if the letter lists SSNs or financial details
A freeze is free and stops new accounts being opened in your name. You place it separately with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. The FTC explains how at consumer.ftc.gov.
