- Proof required: Documented-loss claims require reasonable supporting records, such as statements, invoices, telephone records, photographs, or receipts. A personal certification, declaration, affidavit, or handwritten receipt by itself is not sufficient. The estimated pro rata cash payment does not require loss documentation, but all benefits require a timely valid Claim Form. The notice does not specify documents for the California residency and notice conditions.

Questions & Answers
What do I need for a documented-loss payment?
What do I need for a documented-loss payment?
- You may seek up to $5,000 for documented losses, but you need to submit reasonable supporting records with your Claim Form.
- Examples include bank or credit-card statements, invoices, telephone records, photographs, and receipts.
- Your own certification, declaration, affidavit, or handwritten receipt alone does not count as enough documentation. Self-prepared records may help explain other evidence.
What happens if my documented-loss claim is not supported or is invalid?
What happens if my documented-loss claim is not supported or is invalid?
- The notice says a documented-loss claim without reasonable support, or an invalid claim that is not corrected, will be treated as a request for the pro rata cash payment instead.
- That payment is estimated at $25 and does not require loss documentation. Its actual amount may be lower because it is divided among valid claims from the remaining fund.
Can the payments and monitoring be requested together?
Can the payments and monitoring be requested together?
- The benefits are intended to be additional rather than alternatives. A valid claimant may request documented losses, the pro rata cash payment, and monitoring together.
- An additional $75 California payment is available only to a person who was a California resident on July 22, 2024 and whom DAP Health sent notice.
- The notice does not state what documents, if any, must be submitted to prove the California residence and notice conditions.
Could the available benefits be reduced because of the size of the fund?
Could the available benefits be reduced because of the size of the fund?
- The $1.3 million fund pays more than class-member benefits. It also covers administration, approved attorneys’ fees and expenses, service awards, and monitoring costs.
- Pro rata cash payments come only from what remains after the other listed uses of the fund.
- If there is not enough money for monitoring, its two-year period will be shortened and no cash payments will be made. If monitoring and documented-loss claims together exceed available funds, documented-loss payments are reduced equally and the pro rata and California payments are not made.
How do I exclude myself, and what does that change?
How do I exclude myself, and what does that change?
- To leave the settlement, mail a written exclusion request to the Settlement Administrator. It must be postmarked by September 1, 2026.
- The request must include the case name and number, your name, address, telephone number, physical signature, and a statement that you want to be excluded.
- You cannot opt out by phone or email. If you opt out, you cannot receive settlement benefits, but you will not be bound by the settlement or its judgment.
When will benefits be provided?
When will benefits be provided?
- Benefits are not payable merely because a claim is submitted. The court must approve the settlement, and it must become final.
- The notice does not give a payment date. It says the process may take time after approval and finality.
