The cyberattack compromised the personal health data of a third of Americans.
Change Healthcare, one of the largest health payment processing companies in the world, was affected by a ransomware attack on Feb. 21.
More than 80% of hospitals reported the cyberattack affected their cash flow, and of those, nearly 60% said more than $1 million in revenue was affected each day, it said. An investigation into the cyberattack, as well as whether Change Healthcare and UnitedHealth violated any patient privacy laws, is ongoing.
