Computer network outage saps Aspirus Wausau Hospital
An unexpected computer shutdown Wednesday at Aspirus Wausau Hospital forced officials to divert ambulances to other hospitals and reschedule procedures. Kathy Drengler, vice president of clinical services for Aspirus, said the hospital and some Aspirus clinics lost phone service and access to computer networks for more than five hours, but the cause remains unclear.
