Your Rights and Next Steps

If you believe your information may have been compromised in this breach, there are several important steps you can take to protect yourself:

  • Place a fraud alert on your credit file by contacting one of the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion). This alert notifies creditors to verify your identity before opening new accounts.
  • Consider placing a security freeze on your credit report. This restricts access to your credit file and makes it more difficult for identity thieves to open accounts in your name.
  • Monitor your financial account statements, explanation of benefits statements from your health insurer and credit reports regularly for signs of fraud or irregular activity.
  • For those whose financial account or payment card information was impacted, contact your bank or card issuer to discuss protective steps, such as closing the account or obtaining a new account number.
  • Remain vigilant regarding your medical information. Review your health insurance explanation of benefits and request a current year-to-date report of all services paid for you. Contact your insurer or provider if you see anything unfamiliar.

Lawyers are ready to help individuals who may have been affected by this breach understand their rights and pursue potential claims for compensation.
