CVC's 2023 data breach exposed health and personal info for thousands. File by July 1, 2026 for \~$75 cash, up to $5,000 reimbursement, or 2 years of medical monitoring.
What happened
Class period: The data breach occurred on September 29, 2023. All U.S. residents whose personal information was potentially compromised in this incident are included in the Settlement Class.
On September 29, 2023, Cardiovascular Consultants Ltd. (CVC) -- a cardiac care provider -- suffered a data breach that exposed the kind of information you really don't want floating around: names, Social Security numbers, addresses, dates of birth, driver's license and state ID numbers, health insurance details, and medical records. CVC began notifying affected individuals on December 2, 2023.
A class action lawsuit followed in Arizona's Maricopa County Superior Court. CVC denies any wrongdoing but agreed to a $3,850,000 settlement to resolve the case. If your personal or health information was potentially compromised, you may be entitled to cash and other benefits -- but only if you file a claim.

Extra details
- You can file for both the pro rata cash payment AND out-of-pocket loss reimbursement -- they are not mutually exclusive.
- Medical monitoring is available to all valid claimants, not just those with documented losses.
- The total Settlement Fund is $3,850,000. After attorneys' fees (up to 33%), administrative costs, taxes, and $5,000 service awards to each of the four Class Representatives, the remaining balance is used to pay approved claims. If out-of-pocket claims exceed the remaining fund, reimbursements will be reduced proportionally and medical monitoring may be reduced to one year. No pro rata cash payments will be made if the fund is exhausted by other claims.
