FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — An Indiana medical software company has reported the private information of 3.9 million people nationwide was exposed when its networks were hacked earlier this year.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said Monday that Medical Informatics Engineering reported that's how many people were affected by the hack.

The Fort Wayne company announced June 10 that the attack on its main network and its NoMoreClipboard network began May 7. It was detected May 26. The company said the exposed information includes names, addresses, birthdates, Social Security numbers and health records.
