UMMC reports:
The University of Mississippi Medical Center clinics will remain closed statewide Monday and Tuesday.
Medical Center teams continue to respond to the Feb. 19 cyberattack alongside federal and state agencies and national experts in cybersecurity. Our phone systems and ability to receive or send emails remain down or unreliable.
The UMMC Emergency Departments and hospitals in Jackson, Madison County, Grenada and Holmes County are open and caring for patients. The Medical Center is actively working on a solution for patients who need to contact us with routine medical and/or medication needs.
UMMC has contacted patients receiving ongoing time-sensitive care to arrange treatment.
“Our care teams continue to provide exceptional service to our patients and families. I know this intrusion into our system has negatively impacted some of our patients, but please know that we are using every resource at our disposal to resolve this issue in a safe and effective manner,” said Dr. LouAnn Woodward, vice chancellor for health affairs.
