The $925,000 Letter: When Cyber Negligence Becomes Financial Violence
⸻
In this urgent episode of Zero Compromise™, cybersecurity expert Manuel W. Lloyd unpacks the fallout from the Change Healthcare breach—and the devastating ripple effect it’s had on frontline medical providers.
At the center: Dr. Christine Meyer, who just received a $925,200 repayment letter from Optum with only 5 days to comply.
But the real twist?
• The letter was sent to the wrong practice
• It demanded more than she borrowed
• And it came months after public promises that no repayment would be requested until practices were ready
This isn’t a billing issue.
This is financial violence, fueled by corporate negligence and hidden behind bureaucracy.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• Why the Change Healthcare breach is still affecting providers 14 months later
• How third-party cyber failures can financially devastate small practices
• What “autonomy leakage” means—and how it can make your org vulnerable
• A practical step you can take today to protect yourself
