FedScoop: A recent breach of veterans’ personal information may have also compromised the information of 17,000 community care providers, a point the Department of Veterans Affairs didn’t initially disclose when it announced the incident Tuesday, according to some Senate Democrats.
The additional 17,000 providers involved in the incident came to light in a letter Democrats on the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs sent Wednesday to VA leadership.
