Cybersecurity in Healthcare: How Ransomware Attacks Medical Practices | MGMA Leaders Conference 2025

In this episode of the MGMA Podcast, we sit down with Rana McSpadden, FACMPE, CHPC, CPC, a consultant with the Medical Practice Services department of SVMIC, to explore the growing risks of ransomware and cybersecurity threats in medical practices. With more than 25 years of healthcare experience, Rana brings expertise in compliance, cybersecurity, patient experience, and practice operations to the discussion.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Why ransomware attacks on medical practices are becoming more frequent
  • Common gaps in healthcare security risk analysis that leave practices vulnerable
  • The dangers of incomplete malware removal and repeat ransomware attacks
  • How AI tools like ChatGPT can create cybersecurity risks in healthcare
  • What PHI you should never put into public AI systems
  • Real OCR settlement case studies from practices that experienced breaches

Key Takeaway: Many practices have not completed thorough, enterprise-wide security risk analyses—making them prime targets for threat actors. Leadership from the top is essential for building effective cybersecurity programs.

📍 Recorded live at the MGMA Leaders Conference 2025 in Orlando, FL

🎯 Perfect for: Healthcare administrators, practice managers, medical group leaders, compliance officers, and IT professionals in healthcare settings
