Claims open Deadline: December 21, 2026

Who qualifies?

You qualify if you are a U.S. resident who was sent written notice from Etairos Health about the data incident on or around March 22, 2024. The case concerns the breach affecting current and former employees' information.

How much could I receive?

Choose $75 cash or up to $4,500 for eligible losses and time spent responding to the breach. The $4,500 includes up to $120 for eight hours at $15 per hour. You can also request three years of credit monitoring and identity protection.

Do I need supporting documents?

Loss claims need supporting records. Time claims need an attestation describing what you did and how long it took. The $75 alternative does not require a loss claim, but you must establish class membership, and the administrator may request additional information.

Do I need a notice ID or PIN?

Online claims use the login ID and PIN from your notice. For a mailed claim, you may use your notice ID or the name and physical address you gave Etairos for employment. Call 866-719-2657 if you need help.

What is the deadline?

The claim deadline is December 21, 2026. Mailed claims must be postmarked by that date. November 20 is the separate deadline to opt out of the settlement.

How do I claim?

File through the official settlement website or mail a completed claim form. Choose either the $75 alternative or reimbursement for losses and time, then select monitoring if wanted. Attach the records required for your chosen benefits.

What proof do I need with my claim?

What do I need to show that I am part of the settlement?

  • Use either the unique identifier from the postcard or email notice, or the name and physical address you gave Etairos for employment.
  • The notice also says that documentation related to each payment type must be included with the Claim Form. For the $75 alternative payment, it does not specify what particular related documentation is expected beyond the required class-membership proof.

What types of out-of-pocket expenses may be covered?

The expense payment is for unreimbursed costs or losses connected to responding to the incident notice or reducing its effects. The notice lists examples, but says they are not the only possible expenses.

  • Costs from February 20, 2024 onward for accessing or freezing and unfreezing credit reports.
  • Related incidental costs, such as notary, fax, postage, copying, mileage, and long-distance phone charges.
  • Credit monitoring or other mitigation costs incurred from February 20, 2024 through the date you submit your claim.
  • Unreimbursed losses tied to identity theft, identity fraud, false tax returns, or other misuse of personal information.

Can I request payment for time I spent dealing with the notice?

Can I request payment for my time even if I did not pay expenses?

  • You can request payment for up to 8 hours at $15 per hour, up to $120.
  • You do not need to have out-of-pocket losses to request this time payment.
  • Provide an attestation and a brief description of what you did in response to the breach notice and the time spent on each action.
  • The $120 time amount is included within, not added to, the $4,500 per-person cap for Out-of-Pocket Losses and Attested Time.

Can I receive both the $75 alternative payment and expense or time benefits?

Can I get the $75 payment and reimbursement for expenses or time?

  • You may choose the $75 payment instead of a claim for Out-of-Pocket Losses and Attested Time.
  • You cannot receive both the $75 payment and the expense-and-time benefits.
  • Credit monitoring is a separate benefit that requires a claim, and the notice presents it alongside either payment choice.

Could the Claims Administrator ask me for more information?

What happens after I send in my Claim Form?

  • The Claims Administrator reviews whether the information in the Claim Form is complete, timely, and valid.
  • It may ask you for more information.
  • If requested information is not provided on time, the claim will be treated as invalid and will not be paid.

How do I exclude myself, and what does that change?

How do I leave the settlement instead of participating?

  • Send a signed letter saying that you want to be excluded from the settlement in Bueno v. Etairos Health, Inc., Case No. 24-002129-CI.
  • Include your name and address.
  • Mail it to the Claims Administrator with a postmark no later than November 20, 2026.
  • If you exclude yourself, you cannot receive settlement benefits, but you are not bound by the judgment.

When might payments or other benefits be available?

When could benefits be paid?

  • Payments can be made only after the Court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved.
  • The notice does not say how long that process will take.
  • The hearing is scheduled for January 20, 2027, but the Court may move it without additional notice.
