NOTIFICATION OF DATA INCIDENT
On April 15, 2024, Walmart Inc. became aware of an error that occurred on February 14, 2024 and affected a subset of digital pharmacy patient profiles, which caused information about one patient
to be visible to another patient. Walmart immediately began investigating to determine the extent of the personal information impacted.
The investigation revealed that the first and last name, date of birth,
and gender of some patient’s digital pharmacy profiles may have
been visible to another patient. The issue was due to an error. The
security of Walmart’s systems was not impacted. If you logged into
your online pharmacy account between February 14, 2024 and
April 18, 2024, it is possible you were affected by this error.
Walmart takes this matter very seriously and the company is fully
committed to protecting the privacy and security of protected health
information. We have addressed the error, and we are also continuing to evaluate additional safeguards to help prevent this type
of incident from occurring in the future.
