Some computer systems at CHI Memorial were offline Tuesday as the health system’s parent company dealt with an “IT security incident” at some of its facilities.
“As a precautionary step, we have taken certain IT systems offline, which may include electronic health record systems and other systems,” a statement from hospital officials said. “Our facilities are following existing protocols for system outages and taking steps to minimize the disruption. We take our responsibility to ensure the privacy of our patients and IT security very seriously.”
Some patient procedures were rescheduled as a result.
