In a widescale data breach, the personal information of more than a quarter million South Bay patients who rely on the state’s affordable health insurance plan may have been exposed through a San Jose-based Medi-Cal provider hit by a nationwide cyber attack.

That vendor, NationsBenefits, said it learned about the data compromise on Feb. 7.
