The U.S. government is taking significant steps to bolster cybersecurity in the healthcare sector. Representative Chris Pappas has introduced a bipartisan bill aimed at strengthening cybersecurity to protect personal health information and ensure access to care. In addition, the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) is set to invest over $50 million to develop tools that can identify and fix vulnerabilities in hospital software. This initiative comes in response to recent disruptive cyber attacks on the U.S. healthcare system. US health officials will allocate millions to companies working on these cybersecurity tools, emphasizing the urgency of protecting healthcare systems and patient data, particularly in private hospitals.
