Waikato DHB reported today that significant progress has been made toward restoring its technical systems which went down following a recent cyberattack. Our current plan would see our hospitals digital capability improved by the end of next week. Although there will still be some way to go, this would be a big step on from the past weeks, Waikato DHB Chief Executive Dr Kevin Snee said in an update.
The hospital group s radiation therapy service, as well as its inpatient management system, will be up and running in the said timeframe. Radiology and laboratory diagnostic services are also expected to go online by next week s end.
