The health system took some of its IT systems offline to manage the hack, according to a March 5 notice on its website. Endless Mountains is asking patients to bring physical copies of IDs, insurance cards, medication lists, allergies, and lab or imaging orders to appointments.

“At this time, certain systems are unavailable, and we appreciate the patience and understanding of our patients, staff and the community as we work through this challenge,” the statement said. “We apologize for any inconvenience this disruption may cause.”

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
