My esteemed listmates,

I'm sure many of you have been encouraged to register with your healthcare
provider's patient portal.

Isn't that an easy way in for hackers or ransomware?

What additional steps should we ask our health care providers to provide to
endure they have in place any additional security they can implement to
protect our health care info?

Or is it about as safe as public wifi?

It makes it convenient for Dr offices but at what risk to us patients?

Thank you,

Charles.
