Hospital struggles to restore MyChart months after cyberattack
Becker's Health IT, by Giles Bruce; 4/1/24
Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago is still trying to restore its MyChart patient portal two months after a cyberattack took its systems offline. ... The organization was struck by a "known criminal threat actor" and disconnected its IT and phone systems Jan. 31. A hacking group later claimed it sold the hospital's data for $3.4 million. Lurie Children's has since restored its phones, email and EHR, but has been working to reinstate MyChart for weeks.
