It happens at fortune 5 medical companies. When you sign up to Facebook you know you’re signing up to Facebook. When you go to the doctors office you are probably completely unaware that your PHI is being shared with a couple dozen other companies often intentionally and sometimes unintentionally. If you are a human in the United States there is a high probability your PHI is sitting in a log file on a server owned by some company you’ve never even heard of.
Fwiw none of this is necessarily a breach of hipaa laws.
