Who qualifies
- You were a Missouri resident who used Jefferson County Health Center / Jefferson County Health Department services, and your protected health information was compromised in the breach discovered around November 15, 2022.
- The defendant must have identified you on the settlement class list. Check your settlement notice or ask the administrator to confirm membership; using health services alone does not establish eligibility.
- You must not have validly excluded yourself from the settlement. Check the official notice for the full exclusions.
- Choose either the $150 cash option without supporting loss documents or the reimbursement option with evidence of qualifying lost time and expenses. You cannot collect both options.
- Reimbursement covers qualifying, unreimbursed breach-related time and expenses incurred between the defendant's breach notice and November 16, 2026. The claim calculation starts from a maximum of $300 before proportional adjustments.

Frequently asked questions
How much will the Jefferson County settlement pay?
Eligible claimants choose $150 cash or reimbursement calculated from up to $300 in documented eligible lost time and expenses. Both amounts can change proportionally after approved deductions and the number and value of valid claims are known. They are not guaranteed final checks.
Why could my payment be more or less than $150 or $300?
The agreement increases payments proportionally when valid claims total less than 75% of the net fund, until payments reach that 75% level. If valid claims exceed the net fund, payments decrease proportionally to fit. The net fund is what remains after approved fees, expenses, administration and representative awards.
Who qualifies for this Missouri health-data settlement?
The class covers Missouri residents who used Jefferson County Health Center / Jefferson County Health Department services, whose health information was compromised in the breach discovered around November 15, 2022, and who were identified on the class list. A notice or administrator confirmation helps establish whether you are included.
What is the Jefferson County claim deadline?
Submit the official claim form online or mail it postmarked by November 16, 2026. Include your signature and any evidence required for the payment option you select.
Do I need proof of losses?
The $150 cash option does not require supporting loss documents, but you must still qualify and submit a truthful signed claim. The reimbursement option requires supporting evidence for qualifying, unreimbursed lost time and expenses incurred between the breach notice and November 16, 2026.
Can I claim both the cash payment and reimbursement?
No. The Jefferson County settlement offers two mutually exclusive payment options. Select one on the claim form; you cannot add the $150 cash option to the reimbursement option.
When will Jefferson County settlement payments arrive?
No fixed arrival date is confirmed. Payments require final court approval and resolution of any appeals. Check the administrator's website for payment updates after approval.
