Individuals who received a notice from Mindpath Health regarding a 2022 data breach may be eligible to claim a cash payment or credit monitoring under a class action settlement.
Current and former patients who received notice of a data security incident in or around January 2023, or who received services from Mindpath before August 2022, may qualify to claim up to $50 or more. The lawsuit alleged that unauthorized parties accessed Microsoft Office 365 email accounts in March and July 2022, exposing personal and health information.
Who Is Eligible?
Class members qualify if all of the following apply:
- Mindpath Health identified them as potentially affected by the March 2022 or July 2022 incidents

A California subclass also includes individuals who lived in California during at least one incident and received notice at a California address.
How Much Can Class Members Receive?
