US health tech giant Change Healthcare hit by cyberattack

Change Healthcare, a major U.S. healthcare technology provider that processes billions of transactions and touches roughly one-in-three U.S. patient records, experienced a network interruption from a confirmed cyberattack that disrupted login access and prescription processing at pharmacies nationwide; UnitedHealth/Optum has attributed the outage to likely government-backed (nation-state) actors, though specifics and technical indicators were not released.
