When one of those patients dies as a result the charge will change from stealing to reckless homicide. I doubt these guys understand what they are in for.  Undecided

They probably hacked a hospital because it had weaker security than a bank and they only had mediocre hacking skills. If their opsec skills match their hacking skills they will get caught. The FBI will be scouring every computer in that hospital for evidence, and it will probably get help from the CIA to track the movement of any bitcoins paid as ransom.
