Kaiser Permanente Reaches $46 Million Settlement: Are You Owed Money?
Summary
Kaiser Permanente has reached a $46 million settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit alleging a data privacy breach affecting 13 million members. The settlement stems from the use of tracking codes on their website and mobile apps, sharing data including IP addresses, names, searches, and medical histories with companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft, and X. Members who accessed the authenticated pages of the official website or mobile apps between November 2017 and May 2024 may be eligible for compensation, ranging from $20 to $40. To file a claim, members should visit the settlement website by March 12, 2026, and complete an online form using their settlement class member ID, which will be provided via email. Kaiser Permanente operates 26 locations in Georgia with numerous affiliated hospitals and medical groups.
