The Deparment of Government Efficience plans to migrate all Social Security Administration codebases off of COBOL by the end of this year. This market resolves YES if this effort results in a HIPAA breach ("an impermissible use or disclosure under the Privacy Rule that compromises the security or privacy of the protected health information"), as confirmed by one of the following sources:
Official report from HHS Office for Civil Rights
Public disclosures by DOGE
Court findings in relevant legal cases
Investigative reporting from at least two major news outlets
