Security breaches soar for electronic medical records

The Washington Examiner reports:

Security hacks of electronic medical records have more than doubled this year, costing the healthcare system $50 billion, according to a new report from the American Action Forum.

A report that the right-leaning think tank provided to the Washington Examiner underscores the extra costs and security problems caused by electronic health records, as doctors and hospitals make troublingly slow progress toward switching from paper to electronic records or improving the ones they already use.

Health record security breaches have soared this year, with more than 94 million electronic medical records compromised so far. That's more than double the total number of records compromised over the six years before 2015. The American Action Forum estimates that all the breaches since 2009 have cost the healthcare system $50.6 billion.
