Change Healthcare has restored some services after a ransomware attack

UnitedHealth has successfully restored some of the pharmacy services of Change Healthcare, which were previously offline due to a cyberattack. The attack had led to a week-long system outage, causing significant disruption. However, most U.S. pharmacies were able to establish electronic workarounds to mitigate the impact. The restoration of services marks a significant step towards full recovery. However, the incident has raised concerns about cybersecurity in the healthcare sector and highlighted the need for robust security measures to protect sensitive patient data and ensure the continuity of essential services.
