Centre Hospitalier de Mâcon

Centre Hospitalier de Mâcon, also known as CH Mâcon, is a public healthcare institution located in the city of Mâcon in eastern France. As a centre hospitalier, it provides a range of medical services including emergency care, inpatient treatment, and outpatient consultations to the local population. The facility operates under the French national health system and offers care around the clock. Its primary mission is to deliver accessible and quality healthcare to residents of the Saône‑et-Loire department and surrounding areas. The hospital is integrated into the regional healthcare network and follows the standards set by the Ministry of Health.

In May 2022, CH Mâcon was the target of a cyberattack that disrupted its external email communications while leaving internal information systems and patient care operations unaffected. The incident prompted the hospital to activate its IT response plan and to seek assistance from national cybersecurity authorities, namely ANSSI and the CERTE Santé agency, for analysis and restoration. A formal complaint was filed with law‑enforcement bodies. The hospital committed to providing further updates as recovery efforts progressed. Throughout the event, the institution maintained continuity of clinical services for patients.
