About Radia Inc., PS
Radia Inc., P.S. is one of the largest 100% physician-owned and managed radiology groups in the United States, founded in 1997. Headquartered in Lynnwood, Washington, it provides diagnostic imaging services — including mammography, neuroradiology, musculoskeletal imaging, CT scans, and ultrasound — and serves more than 50 hospital and clinic partners across Washington and Idaho. The practice employs approximately 270 or more board-certified, subspecialty-trained radiologists and around 750 total employees.
What Happened?
Radia Inc., PS was listed in an HHS Office for Civil Rights breach portal report submitted on September 18th, 2026. The filing describes a hacking or IT incident involving a network server and at least one other location, affecting 616 individuals. No business associate was identified as present. The HHS filing represents Radia’s first known regulatory acknowledgment of an incident. The specific data types involved were not specified in the HHS filing.
Separately, on July 16th, 2026, the Chaos ransomware group listed Radia on its dark web leak site and claimed to have exfiltrated 655 gigabytes of data, allegedly including patient records, corporate documents, and employee information. These are attacker-side allegations only and have not been confirmed by Radia. As of early August 2026, multiple sources reported that Radia had not publicly confirmed the breach or notified state attorney general offices, making the September 18th, 2026 HHS submission the apparent first formal disclosure — roughly two months after the ransomware group’s posting. Multiple law firms, including Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe LLP and Shamis & Gentile P.A., announced investigations beginning as early as August 3rd, 2026, but no filed class action lawsuit had been identified as of that time. No prior breaches involving Radia Inc., P.S. were found in available sources.

What Should You Do?
If you received notice that your information was involved in this incident, you should take steps to protect yourself now. Consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze with the three major credit bureaus — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — to prevent unauthorized accounts from being opened in your name. Monitor your financial accounts closely for suspicious activity and request your free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com. Because this incident involves a healthcare provider and the ransomware group alleged that patient records may have been taken, you should also review any Explanation of Benefits statements from your insurer and check your medical records for services you did not receive. If you spot unfamiliar activity, report it at IdentityTheft.gov.
