The University of Vermont Medical Center is continuing to recover from the cyber attack late last month that crippled access to electronic records at the Burlington hospital.
The restoration includes inpatient and ambulatory sites at the UVM Medical Center and ambulatory clinics at Central Vermont Medical Center in Berlin, Porter Medical Center in Middlebury and Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh, New York.
The hospital's information technology experts are still working to restore access to sites used by the public.
The Oct. 28 attack disrupted services at the UVM Medical Center and affiliated facilities.
The same day UVM Medical Center was attacked the FBI and two federal agencies warned that they had "Credible information of an increased and imminent cybercrime threat to U.S. hospitals and healthcare providers."
