    Imagine your hospital gets hacked—the MRIs are down, billing’s frozen, and suddenly you’re faxing patient records like it’s 1999.

This week, we’re diving into what the Health Sector Coordinating Council (HSCC) is doing about it, including their recent trip to Congress to lay it all out. From legacy devices clinging to life like old Tamagotchis to cybersecurity plans that don’t sound half bad, we break it all down with just the right amount of snark.
