A major technical outage at the Basilicata region’s data center has paralyzed primary regional and corporate IT systems. Initially, authorities focused on restoring healthcare services, noting that while the Analysis Laboratory and Immuno-Transfusion Service showed signs of recovery, the critical ‘Amico’ platform—which manages emergency rooms, hospital admissions, and appointment bookings—remained offline.

One week after the outage began, essential digital services have not returned to full functionality. The disruption has severely impacted the CUP (Single Booking Center) system, affecting outpatient appointments and laboratory exams. To maintain continuity, healthcare workers have resorted to paper-based methods, though the instability has caused significant administrative delays.

Regional Councilor Piero Marrese has called for transparency regarding the cause of the failure and the security of stored data, noting that significant investments had been made to ensure infrastructure stability. While the incident may have been a technical malfunction rather than a cyberattack, the exact nature of the problem remains unclear, and a second system crash reportedly occurred shortly after the initial failure.
