"The hackers gained access to Anthem's computer system and got information including names, birthdays, medical IDs, Social Security numbers, street addresses, e-mail addresses and employment information, including income data."
"Both current and former customers were hit."

Apparently no credit card information was obtained. Information from the company is here: http://www.anthemfacts.com

I have BCBS and was/am concerned. Apparently BCBS has 37 independent companies throughout the USA - I don't 'think' mine is affected.

Count me in as well.....George.
I guess what is really scary is why would you keep "old" info current?
My understanding is ALL of their users past and present were affected.
