Who qualifies
- The class includes people who were sent written notification of the data incident. The case is in Kansas, but the class definition in the notice does not require Kansas residency. A connection to the hospital without written notification does not establish membership.
- The assigned judge, the judge’s family and staff, and anyone who perpetrated the incident are excluded. A person who opted out cannot receive settlement benefits.
- To recover out-of-pocket costs, you must show actual, documented losses tied to the data incident between July 14, 2025 and November 12, 2026. Expenses already reimbursed by a third party do not qualify. For time spent, briefly describe the work you did in response to the incident.
How to submit a claim

Review your notice and pick your benefits
Provide your contact information and Notice ID if known on the paper form. Check the monitoring option if you want to enroll, and select documented costs, time spent, or both for cash. Monitoring can be requested separately or with cash.

Document costs or describe time
For financial losses, list the amount and provide bills, receipts, bank statements or other records showing the expense and its connection to the incident. Your own notes can explain other documentation but are not enough by themselves. For time spent, select up to four hours at $25 per hour and briefly describe what you did.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get $100 for expenses and another $100 for time?
No. Documented losses and attested time together are capped at $100. For example, two hours of qualifying time at $25 per hour plus $80 in approved expenses would still be limited to $100 total.
What does the monitoring service cover?
The two-year CyEx service includes $1 million in medical identity theft insurance and monitoring for healthcare insurance ID exposure, medical record number exposure and unauthorized HSA spending. The notice also describes access to a fraud resolution agent.
Can I use handwritten notes as proof of a financial loss?
Notes can support other evidence, but are not sufficient alone. Include independent records of the amount and the reason for the expense. Time claims require a brief description of your response activities.
When will I receive my benefits?
The hearing is scheduled for December 7, 2026. Payments depend on final court approval and resolution of any appeals. The notice does not guarantee an individual payment date. For questions, call (833) 421-7273 or email info@SBAMHDataSettlement.com.
