I looked at the PDF. That is the lamest nonapoligy apoligy I have EVER seen! 
How can we puiblisize these events like this? People need to know that 
Georgia really doesn't care enough to even offer at least credit monitoring.

If they used SSN for the key to a file that contained parents name and

No need to select on SSN.  All babies w/in the interval were affected.

Select on birthday and notify the mother at the address she provided when
she was admitted.
