If you were mailed a notice by Missouri Delta Medical Center regarding a data incident that occurred on or about August 22, 2021, you may be eligible for compensation and credit monitoring.
A settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit against Missouri Delta Medical Center (“MDMC”) for the potential compromise of private information of current and/or former patients of MDMC on or about August 22, 2021 (the “Data Incident”). The information involved in the Data Incident potentially included names and medical information relating to MDMC patients.
If you received notice of the class action, you may be included in this Settlement as a “Settlement Class Member.”
The Settlement provides payments to people who submit valid claims for lost time, out-of-pocket expenses, and/or charges that were incurred and plausibly arose from the Data Incident, and for other extraordinary unreimbursed monetary losses. The Settlement also provides for two years of credit monitoring services. Your legal rights are affected regardless of whether you do or do not act.
All Settlement Class Members are provided access to three bureau (3B) credit monitoring services for a period of two years without the need to submit a Claim Form. A link with a redeemable code to be used to enroll in credit monitoring services was included in the notice you received. To receive credit monitoring you must enroll between December 1, 2023 and March 31, 2024. If you cannot locate the link and/or redeemable code, you may contact the Settlement Administrator by email at MDMCSettlement@rg2claims.com or toll-free at 1-866-742-4955.
