Change Healthcare Cyberattack exposes Cybersecurity Concerns

At the time of publication, UHG most recently reported that payment processing by Change Healthcare had been restored to approximately 86% of pre-incident levels. Prior to that, the company had advanced more than $6.5 billion to providers to compensate for some of the financial losses from downed systems.But the recovery process for UHG and the thousands of impacted providers is far from over. One in five health centers surveyed by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) have had over half of their revenue impacted by the incident.An American Medical Association (AMA) survey conducted in late March revealed that more than half of physicians have had to dip into personal savings to manage the financial strain caused by Change systems being unavailable.
