In a Healthcare Risk Management article entitled "HHS Proposes Cyber Security for Hospitals," Gunster attorney Bill Dillon shares how the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has recently started holding healthcare organizations responsible for breaches. While HHS once sympathized with organizations as they battled sophisticated hackers, it now knows that these shortcomings were brought on by a lack of policies and procedures.
