Summary
Horizon Healthcare RCM recently faced a ransomware attack that compromised health data and hinted at the possibility of paying a ransom to mitigate the fallout. Although the incident directly affected six individuals, the full scope of the breach remains unclear, especially given the company's client base that includes significant healthcare systems. Importantly, none of these clients have reported the breach to regulatory authorities, raising concerns about compliance and accountability in health data management. The compromised data, which includes sensitive personal information, underscores the critical need for robust cybersecurity measures in healthcare technology.
