Edelson Lechtzin LLP is currently evaluating claims from patients and employees affected by the intrusion, which reportedly resulted in the theft of between 263 and 362 gigabytes of data. While the medical group has not yet confirmed the specific categories of information compromised, the firm’s investigation aims to determine the extent of the exposure and potential legal recourse for those impacted.

Legal experts are urging individuals to monitor their financial accounts and credit reports for suspicious activity while the scope of the breach remains under investigation. A successful class action could seek compensation for victims for loss of privacy and out-of-pocket costs, while potentially compelling the healthcare provider to implement more robust security protocols.
