Health Care Cybersecurity and Resiliency Act of 2026
30 September 2026 | Passed Senate with amendment (unanimous consent)
What's next: To the House (if and when it takes it up)
Summary: The bill would require private health care organizations to adopt minimum cybersecurity protections like multifactor authentication and would direct federal health agencies to provide training, guidance, and resources to strengthen cybersecurity across the health care sector. It would also require HHS and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to coordinate their efforts to prevent and respond to cyberattacks, and would mandate that health care providers notify patients about the number of people affected when their personal health information is breached.
