Still think going paperless was the right decision, Doc? (Are you pissed yet?) If you haven’t adopted digital records, now is NOT the time to do so. 

“Just last quarter, U.S. cyber insurance prices increased 79% from a year earlier, according to Marsh’s Global Insurance Market Index…. IBM determined the average ransomware attack cost $4.54 million last year, not including the cost of the ransom, and that 83% of the organizations have had more than one data breach.” (There goes your retirement stash).

QUESTION: So, now that the American Dental Association no longer sells its for-profit digital records system to intentionally uninformed dues-paying members, is the not-for-profit organization still encouraging dentists to go paperless?
