According to a July 18 update on Palomar’s website, the hospital has restored the following functionalities: its EMR system, appointment scheduling by phone, inbound calling, electronic prescription refills, electronic lab tests and its patient portal.
Palomar said its in-house radiology services have still not been restored.
These restoration efforts come after Palmaor took its systems offline on May 5 after detecting “suspicious activity on certain computer systems within its network.” The hospital has not yet disclosed if this suspicious activity was a cyberattack or ransomware attack.
