If you were a patient of Dignity Health and you received notice of a Data Incident, you may be eligible for cash payment or other benefits from a class action settlement.
A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit titled Hillbom v. R1 RCM, Inc. and Dignity Health dba Dignity Health - St. Rose Dominican Hospital, Rosa de Lima Campus, Case No. 2:24-cv-00664-JAD-EJY, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. This lawsuit arises out of Plaintiff's allegations that an unauthorized third party may have accessed the personal identifying information ("PII") and/or protected health information ("PHI") of certain current and former patients of Dignity Health, including Plaintiff and the Settlement Class Members (the "Data Incident").
The Settlement Class includes all individuals whose PII and/or PHI was potentially impacted in the Data Incident and who were sent notice of the Data Incident by Defendants. If you received a notice or the initial notice of the Data Incident from Defendants, then you may be a Settlement Class Member.
Under the Settlement, all Settlement Class Members can receive the following Settlement Benefits: (1) reimbursement for up to $500 for documented Out-of-Pocket Expenses; (2) reimbursement for documented Extraordinary Losses up to $2,500; (3) a Monetary Payment, the amount of which will depend on the participation rate in the Settlement and other factors; and (4) two (2) years of Medical Identity-Theft Monitoring and Protection Services. The Settlement Fund will also be used to pay for the costs of the settlement administration, court-approved attorneys' fees and expenses, and any Service Award for the Class Representative.
Your legal rights are affected regardless of whether you do or do not act. Read the Notice and FAQs carefully.
