Are Your Medical Records Safe?

chart

If you haven’t heard,  Community Health Systems was cyberattacked and the hackers took information on more than 4 million patients.  This company is from Tennessee so the information is pretty redundant, as everyone is related, but that is besides the point (relax, it was just a joke).  The company is notifying patients affected by the attack and offering them identity theft protection services but who cares, the damage is done.  You cannot unspill that milk.  So, in the future, will your electronic medical records be guaranteed to be safe?  The answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!  Something to be said for those old paper charts, huh?
