Change Healthcare has confirmed its clearinghouse services have finally been restored after the organization suffered a massive ransomware attack in February 2024.
Recovery from the Change Healthcare cyberattack has been grueling, costing close to $2 billion so far, with some systems still yet to be restored nearly nine months on.
The attack caused unprecedented levels of disruption to billing and payments providers across the US, and threatened the viability of hospitals across the country.
Reports claim the ransom never made it to the affiliates responsible for the attack, and was taken in entirety by the ransomware operators, who were only meant to receive a portion.
