Healthcare Brew 

Eversheds Sutherland Partner Michael Bahar is quoted in this Healthcare Brew article discussing the recent cyberattack on Change Healthcare.
 
In the article, Michael said hospitals across the US should look at whether they rely too much on a single service provider to store their sensitive and confidential data.
 
“One thing that I suspect [is companies will] increase their resiliency and [do] things like risk assessments to strengthen their contractual requirements and cybersecurity with anyone they give their personal health information or other confidential information to—or otherwise rely upon.”
