AvMed Health Plans announced Monday that personal information of some
current and former subscribers may have been compromised by the theft
of two company laptops from its corporate offices in Gainesville on
Dec. 11.

The information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, Social
Security numbers and protected health information, according to an
AvMed news release.

"The theft was immediately reported to local authorities but attempts
to locate the laptops have been unsuccessful," according to the news
release. "On December 23, 2009, AvMed determined that the data on one
of the laptops may not have been protected properly, and approximately
80,000 of AvMed's current subscribers and their dependents may be
affected. An additional approximate 128,000 former subscribers and
their dependents, dating back to April 2003, may also have been
affected."
