Jane Doe v. Trinity Health Corporation

To All persons whose data may have been impacted by the Data Security Incident and to whom Trinity Health sent via direct mail notices of the Data Security Incident, that occurred on or about January 20, 2021, addressed to a California address (the “Settlement Class”).

• A proposed Settlement has been reached with Defendant Trinity Health Corporation. A settlement has been proposed to resolve the class action filed against Trinity Health Corporation brought by a patient, on behalf of herself and the Settlement Class, relating to a data security incident involving the Accellion File Transfer Appliance that occurred on or about January 20, 2021 (the “Data Security Incident”).  Trinity Health’s investigation of the Data Security Incident determined that some files were present on the Accellion File Transfer Appliance at the time of the Data Security Incident contained certain personal information (“PI”), including some subset of the following: patient’s name, address, email, date of birth, healthcare provider, dates and types of healthcare services, medical record number, immunization type, lab results, medications, payment, payer name and claims information, Social Security numbers, and credit card information, as stated in direct mail notices of the Data Security Incident, dated April 6, 2021, sent by Trinity Health Corporation to affected persons, or their parents or guardians. 
   

• As a Settlement Class Member, you are eligible to receive a Pro-Rata Cash Payment if you timely submit a valid claim form. The Pro-Rata Cash Payment is estimated to be between $231 and $115, if the participation rate is between 5% and 10%, respectively, or $11 if the participation rate is 100%, before deducting the cost of approved payments of up to $1,000 for documented, out-of-pocket losses or expenditures fairly traceable to the Data Security Incident (“Documented Out-of-Pocket Losses”) to Settlement Class Members. 
   

• As a Settlement Class Member, you are eligible to also seek reimbursement for up to $1,000 for documented, out-of-pocket losses or expenditures that you incurred that are fairly traceable to the Data Security Incident (“Documented Out-of-Pocket Losses”).
   

• The Court in charge of this case has granted preliminary approval of the Settlement, but has not yet decided whether to grant final approval of the Settlement. No Settlement benefits or payments will be provided unless the Court grants final approval of the Settlement and the Settlement becomes final.
