The federal government issued a warning concerning a credible and imminent threat to our national healthcare security.  The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) conducted an urgent conference call with leaders of the healthcare industry on Oct 28, informing them that the government has received reliable information that international hackers—perhaps with ties to Russia—are planning to breach the IT systems of some 400 hospitals and clinics throughout the United States.
