Cyberattack on Change Healthcare Causes Billing Issues for California Doctors

A cyberattack on Change Healthcare has left California doctors unable to electronically bill for their services, with Noridian Healthcare Solutions not accepting paper claims either. This hacking incident, affecting a payment processor handling billions of transactions annually, has prompted calls for greater cybersecurity measures and government funding to address vulnerabilities in the U.S. health care system. The crisis is seen as a significant and consequential incident in U.S. health care history that will take time to resolve.
