National Association on Drug Abuse Problems: 90,000 individuals, Feb 2026.

OCR classifies the incident as a hacking or IT incident, with the breached information held in a network server. Hacking/IT Incident is the type recorded on 328 of the 511 New York filings (64%) and on 86% of all filings submitted in 2026. Network Server appears on 49% of New York filings.

No business associate is recorded on the filing; 30% of New York filings do involve one. At 90,000 individuals the breach is 17 times the New York median filing of 5,338 and 23 times the national median of 4,000 across all 7,884 filings. It sits in the 10,000 to 99,999 band, which holds 1,938 filings.

As of 28 August 2026 the case is listed by HHS OCR under Cases Currently Under Investigation. OCR has not published a closing summary, so this page is limited to the fields on the filing itself; the archive entry that follows a closed investigation usually adds a short account of what was exposed and what the entity did afterwards.

New York's breach notification statute (N.Y. Gen. Bus. Law 899-aa) requires notice to affected residents in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, no later than 30 days after discovery. Its attorney general threshold: all breaches (AG, Dept. of State, State Police). The HIPAA Breach Notification Rule ran alongside it: notice to affected individuals and to HHS without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 days after discovery, which is the clock that put this filing on the portal.

Multiplying 90,000 individuals by IBM's $160 customer-PII cost per record (Cost of a Data Breach 2025, the figure the site's calculator uses) gives a modelled $14.4M; the 2026 edition's $192 gives $17.3M. Both are modelled estimates with the method shown, not costs disclosed by National Association on Drug Abuse Problems. For scale, IBM's 2026 average cost of a healthcare breach is $6.64M, so this filing models at 2.6 times the sector average.
