SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WAND) — A Hospital Sisters Health System administrator has left the company less than two weeks after it experienced massive outages caused by a cybersecurity incident.
Kimberly Hodgkinson was serving as senior vice president and chief financial officer before leaving this week.
The healthcare company is still reeling after an incident took down phones, billing, MyChart communications, and other systems at the end of August.
