Reportedly, computer, phone, and internet systems are still experiencing issues as of July 27, 2026. 79 of AnMed’s 106 total facilities have been temporarily closed while AnMed deals with the cyberattack-related disruption.
As of July 27, 2026, it is not publicly known if the threat actor(s) behind the cyberattack have accessed or obtained personal or health information maintained in AnMed’s systems.
