Cyberattack at Hospital El Cruce disrupts clinical scheduling and access to records

Regional reporting states that a 17 January 2025 cyberattack at Hospital El Cruce disabled access to clinical records and studies, canceled referrals and outpatient appointments, disrupted surgery scheduling, and forced staged restoration of hospital systems. Reporting attributes the incident to Medusa ransomware; the hospital did not publish a contemporaneous public incident statement, so that attribution is treated as reported rather than independently confirmed.
