ApolloMD Data Breach – What You Need to Know & What to Do Next

ApolloMD Business Services (“ApolloMD”), a national physician practice management company based in Georgia, has shared that it experienced a major data breach. Hackers gained access to its systems between May 22 and May 23, 2025, when ApolloMD’s IT team noticed unusual activity within its network. The breach was the result of a ransomware attack claimed by the Qilin group, who posted about the incident on a dark web forum on June 12, 2025. This delay means personal information could have been exposed for months before patients were made aware. While the total number of affected individuals has not been disclosed, notification letters started going out on September 17, 2025.

If you or your loved ones received a letter about this breach, it can be unsettling to learn that your personal information may have been exposed. You may be wondering what this means for your financial security, your privacy, and your peace of mind. Here’s how you can take action.

ApolloMD Data Breach | What Information Got Leaked?

As with any data breach, the ApolloMD breach exposed personal details that could put people at risk of identity theft and fraud. The attackers gained unauthorized access to ApolloMD’s IT systems, potentially accessing and acquiring files containing both personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI). While the specific information varies by individual, the type of information potentially exposed includes medical information (diagnosis information, provider names, dates of service, treatment information). When this type of information is compromised, it can make individuals vulnerable to scams, fraudulent financial activity, and ongoing threats to privacy and security.

How Did ApolloMD Respond?

After discovering the incident, ApolloMD:

• Posted notice of the data breach to its website on September 15, 2025
• Began mailing notification letters to impacted individuals on September 17, 2025
• Is providing affected individuals with a list of the specific types of sensitive information impacted and complimentary credit monitoring services
• Immediately secured its systems, launched an internal investigation and engaged a third-party cybersecurity firm to assist in identifying the scope and impact of the incident

These steps provide some reassurance, but the scale of the incident highlights the potential impact on affected individuals.
