"Check the inbox of the email account Kaiser has on file for you. On Monday, Jan. 12, emails were sent from Settlement Administrator with the subject line Notice of Proposed Class Action Settlement Kaiser Privacy Breach Settlement. Copy the Class Member ID Number that's at the top of the email, then click the link for the settlement website. There you can select the Online Claim Form tab and fill out the required form. The deadline to submit it is March 12."
"If you believe you qualify for the payout, choose the tab at the settlement website to request an ID number. Once you have that, you can complete the online claim form. How much money will I get? The settlement administrator is estimating each claimant will get $20 to $40. That's dependent on how many people apply for it. You can designate an electronic payment method (including Venmo, PayPal or certain retailer credits) or ask that a paper check be mailed to you."
Kaiser Permanente customers who used certain Kaiser websites or apps between November 2017 and May 2024—about 13 million people in eight states and Washington, D.C.—are eligible to claim part of a $46 million settlement. On Jan. 12, the settlement administrator emailed Class Member ID numbers and a link to the online claim form; the deadline to submit claims is March 12. Those who did not receive an email can request an ID number on the settlement website. The administrator estimates payments of about $20 to $40 per claimant, with electronic payment or paper check options. Kaiser denied unauthorized sharing but agreed to settle allegations that trackers may have sent patient data to Google, Microsoft and X. Class members may opt out to pursue individual claims.
