Healthcare Provider Cybersecurity Monthly Calls

The Massachusetts eHealth Institute (MeHI) and the MassCyberCenter host a healthcare provider cybersecurity call on the second Thursday of every month. The calls kick off with updates on recent cyber threats and trends from representatives of the Department of Homeland Security and the Massachusetts State Police Commonwealth Fusion Center. After the updates, the calls include a monthly topic of interest. Recent topics included cybersecurity risk assessments and risk management, medical device cybersecurity, incident response planning, and cyber insurance.
 
This series was developed as an outcome of the 2020 Baseline Cybersecurity of Massachusetts Healthcare Provider Survey. The Association for Behavioral Healthcare, Home Care Alliance of Massachusetts, LeadingAge Massachusetts, Massachusetts Health & Hospital Association, Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers, Massachusetts Medical Society, and Massachusetts Senior Care Association partnered with MeHI and the MassCyberCenter to develop and circulate the survey.
