If FTP disappears the US healthcare industry will go with it.

FTP isn't disappearing and I'm pretty sure the US healthcare industry would find a different way to transfer files instead of disappearing.

In my experience in healthcare, SFTP is far more common than FTP/FTPS.

Maybe because it's simpler to administer (no active vs passive issue). In any case, it's the preferred choice.
