AdventHealth

AdventHealth Medical Groups Pulmonary & Sleep Medicine provides specialized clinical services focused on respiratory and sleep-related health conditions. The group operates as part of the broader AdventHealth health system, which is headquartered in the United States. Its core offerings include the diagnosis, treatment, and management of lung diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and interstitial lung disorders. In addition, the group evaluates and treats sleep disorders including obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, and narcolepsy. Patients receive care through outpatient clinics that are integrated with AdventHealth’s hospital and ambulatory network.

A distinguishing attribute of the organization is its experience with a prolonged cybersecurity incident, where a malware infection at its Pulmonary & Sleep Medicine center persisted for over 16 months and was discovered in August 2017. That breach potentially exposed protected health information of approximately 42,000 patients, including names, contact details, Social Security numbers, medical histories, insurance data, and demographic attributes. The organization was also affected by the Blackbaud ransomware attack disclosed in October 2020, which prompted the AdventHealth Foundation to alert donors about a security breach involving donor information. These incidents highlight the group’s exposure to cybersecurity risks despite its clinical specialization in pulmonary and sleep medicine. Structurally, AdventHealth Medical Groups Pulmonary & Sleep Medicine functions as a subsidiary or division within the AdventHealth enterprise, though no further ownership details are provided in the source material.
