Marshall County Hospital officials say that while the facility has been impacted by a “data security event” over the past week, no patient information has been compromised to their knowledge at this point.
In a statement released Wednesday by Marshall County Hospital CEO David Fuqua, cyber security professionals have begun an investigation, and no patient, employee or financial information has been put at risk.
Fuqua said the event has not impacted patient care or any other service provided by the hospital and that the number one goal for MCH was protect the privacy of its patients and provide excellent healthcare.
