The Oncology Institute disclosed a data breach tied to a third-party vendor, potentially exposing patient information after a 2025 cyberattack.
The Oncology Institute has confirmed that patient information was impacted in a cybersecurity incident involving a third-party software provider. The healthcare network first disclosed the security breach in November 2025 while the vendor’s investigation was still ongoing. Although the provider has not been officially named, reports suggest Cognizant-owned TriZetto may be involved.
The Oncology Institute, Inc. is a U.S.-based healthcare company that provides community-based cancer care services. It operates a network of oncology clinics focused on treating patients with cancer in outpatient settings, aiming to make care more accessible outside of large hospital systems.
“The Oncology Institute, Inc. (the “Company”) is providing this disclosure, as a follow-up to its voluntary disclosure in Item 7.01 of a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2025, regarding a cybersecurity incident affecting a software service provider (“Vendor”) utilized by the Company. At the time of the prior voluntary disclosure, the Vendor had indicated that investigation was still ongoing and it could not yet confirm any evidence that any patient personal information was compromised as a result of this incident.” reads the Form 8-K report filed with SEC. “However, on May 20, 2026, Kroll, who is the third-party administrator for the Vendor, notified the Company that the Vendor had detected unauthorized access by a third party to certain information systems of the Company, including systems affecting data of patients. The Company believes that the cybersecurity incident has affected various other healthcare service providers, and the Vendor has set up a patient portal through which it intends to provide information and responses to inquiries.”
On May 20, 2026, Kroll, acting as a third-party administrator, informed the company that a vendor had detected unauthorized access to its systems, potentially affecting patient data. The incident may also involve other healthcare providers.
The attackers remain unknown, and no ransomware group has claimed responsibility for the incidents involving TriZetto or The Oncology Institute.
In March 2026, a data breach at Cognizant’s TriZetto Provider Solutions exposed sensitive information belonging to more than 3.4 million patients.
On October 2, 2025, the company detected suspicious activity in a web portal used by healthcare providers. An investigation revealed that, starting in November 2024, an unauthorized actor accessed records linked to insurance eligibility verification transactions. The firm engaged cybersecurity experts, notified law enforcement, and began informing affected providers in December 2025.
Around November 28, 2025, TriZetto determined the breach may have exposed personal and health data, including names, addresses, birth dates, Social Security numbers, insurance details, and provider information. Financial data was not affected, and no identity theft or fraud linked to the incident has been reported so far.
After discovering the incident, the company implemented additional safeguards to better protect its systems and services.
Three-row family SUVs are expected to do everything; carry passengers comfortably, handle long road trips, keep running costs manageable, and remain dependable for years. Finding one that checks every box without becoming too expensive can be difficult, especially when fuel economy starts to matter as much as space. One hybrid Toyota stands out by delivering all of those priorities in a single package.
This three-row SUV combines the practicality families need with the efficiency advantages of hybrid power. It offers spacious seating, strong everyday comfort, and the kind of long-term reliability Toyota is known for, while using significantly less fuel than many traditional V-6 rivals in the same segment.
For buyers balancing family needs with ownership costs, that combination makes a major difference. It proves that a large SUV doesn’t have to be expensive to run or stressful to own, just thoughtfully engineered around what families actually need most.
In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from various manufacturer websites, including the EPA, CarEdge, and J.D. Power.

The 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid is affordable and built to last
Dependability is a big priority here
If you’re looking for a family SUV that is spacious, light on gas, and will last you a long time with few issues, then the Grand Highlander Hybrid feels like a no-brainer. It is slightly pricier than some of its direct rivals, but Toyota’s experience in developing hybrid means that you can rest peacefully knowing that this three-row SUV should last you years without any problem.
2026 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid trims and pricing

LE
$45,210
XLE
$46,380
Limited
$52,710
Nightshade Edition
$53,690
Platinum
$59,775
Compared to other hybrid three-row SUVs, the Grand Highlander is priced pretty well. While there are some more affordable options, like the Hyundai Palisade and Santa Fe, it undercuts rivals like the Kia Telluride and the Mazda CX-90. This middle of the pack pricing is about on-par for Toyota.
Of the above trims, we think that opting for the XLE gets you the best bang for your buck. It comes with all the features you’d want in a family hauler, such as a power-operated liftgate, a spattering of USB-C ports throughout the cabin, heated front seats, faux-leather upholstery, and a very comprehensive suite of driver aids.
Warranties, maintenance, and reliability
Reliability score: 82/100 (J.D. Power)
Limited warranty: 3 years or 36,000 miles
Powertrain warranty: 5 years or 60,000 miles
Complimentary maintenance: 2 years or 24,000 miles
Average ten-year maintenance costs: $6,299 (CarEdge)
Toyota offers a pretty standard warranty package to back up their reputation for reliability. While the Grand Highlander is technically a newer model, it is essentially just a long wheelbase version of the regular Highlander, meaning its mechanical components have proven themselves to be dependable.
Your first two years or scheduled maintenance visits are free with your purchase of a Grand Highlander. After that point, maintenance is reasonably affordable. CarEdge estimates that the average SUV would cost you $1,867 more to maintain over ten years than the Grand Highlander.
Mercedes may lead luxury, but this Lexus SUV delivers the same upscale feel with way less ownership stress.
There is plenty of space in all three rows of the Grand Highlander Hybrid
Its cabin is simple but exceptionally practical
While the cabins of Toyota’s vehicles are usually a little pedestrian, there is something to be said about how versatile they are, as well as how easy they are to live with. The Grand Highlander definitely follows this trend. While it lacks the flair that some of its rivals offer, it delivers three rows of spacious seating, tons of modern tech, and loads of storage space.
The cabin layout of the Grand Highlander is very neat. Everything is easy to find and there are a ton of storage compartments scattered throughout. Its design won’t blow you away, but you’ll be pleased with just how intuitive all the controls are. The most affordable trims focus on the essentials, but top trims can come with some pretty plush features, including genuine leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and captain’s chairs in the second row.

Infotainment and technology
Every Grand Highlander comes equipped with a 12.3-inch infotainment screen mounted to the top of the dashboard. Lower trim levels come with a hybrid gauge cluster that includes a seven-inch display in the middle, but from the Limited up you get a fully digital 12.3-inch unit instead.
As we already mentioned, there are a number of USB-C ports throughout the cabin, so that the whole family can charge their devices. A wireless charging pad is also included. Three-zone automatic climate control and wireless smartphone mirroring are standard on every trim level. Top trims also offer some better tech, including a heads-up display and an 11-speaker JBL sound system.
Hauling the family doesn’t have to mean spending a ton on gas
The Grand Highlander hybrid is impressively thrifty

Toyota’s ideology of function over form definitely translates into how they tune the performance of their cars. The Grand Highlander Hybrid may not be the most interesting SUV from behind the wheel, but its fuel-sipping powertrain and plush ride means that it will save you money in the long run and keep the family happy.

The Grand Highlander Hybrid comes in two different forms. Most models feature a naturally aspirated inline-four under the hood. The Platinum comes exclusively with the Hybrid MAX setup, though, with the Limited offering a choice of either. The standard hybrid powertrain better suits the Grand Highlander in our mind, with the Hybrid MAX’s quick acceleration clashing with the SUV’s laid-back personality, especially because it takes it toll when it comes to efficiency.
As is the case with a lot of Toyota’s mainstream models, the Grand Highlander lacks excitement, even accounting for the Hybrid MAX’s quick acceleration. Steering is exceptionally light and vague, and the suspension is clearly set up for comfort. This isn’t a bad thing in our eyes, though, as the mission of the Japanese SUV is to get your family from A to B. This is where its comfortable ride quality really shines through.

There are few SUVs as well-suited to family life
Toyota skips the flash and the gimmicks that a lot of other brands have leaned into in the last couple of years. They focus instead on proven technology and long-term dependability. If you’re buying a family vehicle, that should be high up on your list of priorities. Any parent will tell you that they’d take simple functionality over anything, which is what makes the Grand Highlander Hybrid such a solid choice in this segment.
