Hundreds of Americans impacted by a 2022 data breach involving CorrectCare Integrated Health can now claim a share of a $6.49 million settlement, with potential payments of up to $10,000 for those who incurred financial losses, and a deadline to submit claims by August 27, 2024.
Claim Your Share – $6.49 Million Settlement for CorrectCare Data Breach Victims
According to The US Sun, hundreds of Americans who were affected by a data breach in 2022 are now able to claim part of a large $6.49 million settlement from CorrectCare Integrated Health. This comes after a lawsuit accused the company of not protecting customer information during medical billing, which led to hackers accessing sensitive data. Despite denying fault, CorrectCare Integrated Health agreed to settle the case with this significant amount.
Those eligible for payments from the settlement can receive money in three ways. First, people who had financial losses like bank fees or phone charges between July 2022 and August 27, 2024, could get up to $10,000 reimbursed. Second, those without specific losses can choose a different cash payment option. There’s also a special payment for eligible residents of California.
