Data Breaches 238,000 Impacted by Bell Ambulance Data Breach Hackers stole personal information such as names, Social Security numbers, and driver’s license numbers. By Ionut Arghire | March 11, 2026 (9:34 AM ET) Flipboard Reddit Whatsapp Whatsapp Email Ambulance services provider Bell Ambulance is notifying nearly 238,000 individuals that their personal, financial account, medical, and health insurance information was compromised in a February 2025 data breach. The Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based healthcare organization detected the network intrusion on February 13, 2025, and disclosed the incident on April 14, roughly a month after the Medusa ransomware gang claimed responsibility for it. Bell Ambulance said at the time that 114,000 people had been impacted. This week, Bell Ambulance notified the Maine Attorney General’s Office that hackers had access to its network between February 7 and February 14, 2025. The organization told the Maine AGO that it has sent notification letters to 237,830 individuals who were affected by the data breach. A copy of the notification letter submitted to the Maine AGO shows that Bell completed its investigation into the compromised information on February 20, 2026. The compromised information, the organization said last year, includes names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, and driver’s license numbers, along with financial account and medical and health insurance information.

Bell Ambulance is providing the impacted individuals with 12 months of free credit monitoring and identity protection services and is encouraging them to remain vigilant of potential fraud and identity theft incidents. In March last year, the Medusa ransomware group claimed the theft of 219.50 GB of data from Bell Ambulance. The threat actor has since published the allegedly stolen data, which suggests that the organization did not pay a ransom.
