Takeaway 1: The ransomware attack on Prospect Medical Holdings has caused hospitals and outpatient treatment centers across three states to struggle with getting their systems back online. This has resulted in healthcare staff resorting to paper record-keeping and disrupted patient care.
Takeaway 2: Four of Prospect Medical Holding's health systems, including Eastern Connecticut Health Network, Waterbury HEALTH, Crozer Health, and CharterCare, are still in the process of restoring their online systems. The company has taken its systems offline to protect them and is working with cybersecurity specialists to investigate the attack.
Takeaway 3: The ransomware attack has not only affected online systems but also led to the closure of some Prospect-owned emergency rooms, causing diversion of ambulances and inconvenience for patients. Emergency departments at Manchester Memorial Hospital and Rockville General Hospital in Connecticut have since resumed operations, but certain services are still temporarily closed until further notice.
