Only days left to claim $5,100 from $6.5 million data breach settlement - check if you are on the list
Summary
A class action settlement of $6.5 million has been reached following a data breach at Omni Family Health, a nonprofit healthcare organization serving California’s Central Valley. The breach, discovered on August 7, 2024, exposed personal information, including Social Security numbers, due to inadequate cybersecurity measures. Eligible individuals—US residents, particularly those in California—can file claims online or by mail using a unique ID and confirmation code received via mail or email. Claimants with proof of out-of-pocket losses may receive up to $5,100 (California residents) or $5,000 (non-California residents). Even without documentation, claimants can receive approximately $105.56 or $205.56, respectively, depending on residency. The claim deadline is January 5, 2026, and payments are expected after final approval on February 26, 2026.
