Pharmacies nationwide reported delays in filling prescriptions following a Wednesday cyberattack against Change Healthcare, a technology company that handles orders and patient payments.

“Change Healthcare is experiencing a network interruption related to a cybersecurity issue and our experts are working to address the matter,” the company said in a statement. “Once we became aware of the outside threat, in the interest of protecting our partners and patients, we took immediate action to disconnect our systems to prevent further impact. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.”
