A new poll says healthcare cybersecurity will be one of the key issues facing healthcare executives next year, according to an article on the Health IT Security website.
A new poll by the Healthcare Executive Group (HCEG) found the other top issues included data and analytics, total consumer health, population health services, value-based payments and the digital healthcare organization.
This is the fourth consecutive year that healthcare cybersecurity made it into the top 10.
Cybersecurity ranked 10th on this year's list. In last year's poll, cybersecurity ranked sixth. In the 2016 poll, cybersecurity ranked fourth.
