At least several hundred, likely more, Social Security numbers of health
care providers were posted to the Internet in a state contractor's mistake
that officials were scrambling to fix Friday.

Human Resources Commissioner Linda McIntire said the names and Social
Security numbers of doctors, psychologists and others were posted on a Web
site where the state had posted a request for bids by contractors to be the
state's health insurance administrator.
