A Peruvian regulator hit private health-care provider Auna SA with a stiff fine for the unauthorized disclosure of medical records belonging to popular singer Shakira.

Susalud, which oversees Peru’s health-care industry, said Wednesday it imposed a fine of 668,750 soles ($188,355) on the Auna-controlled Delgado Clinic. Located in Lima, the private hospital is popular with the country’s elites and its main location is in the wealthy neighborhood of Miraflores, where it boasts a helicopter landing pad.
