Proof Required?
Esse Health, a medical group based in Missouri, is facing a $2.5 million class action settlement following a 2025 data breach that may have exposed the private information of patients and other individuals. If your personal or medical information was compromised in this incident, you could be entitled to compensation from this settlement fund. Data breaches at healthcare providers are particularly serious because they can expose sensitive information like medical records, Social Security numbers, insurance details, and financial data. The lawsuit alleges that Esse Health failed to adequately protect this information, putting affected individuals at risk of identity theft and other harms. The settlement has been established to compensate those whose data was potentially exposed. If you received a notice from Esse Health about the breach, or if you were a patient or had your information in their systems around the time of the 2025 incident, it's worth checking whether you qualify to file a claim.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • Individuals whose personal or medical information was potentially compromised in the 2025 Esse Health data breach
  • Current or former patients of Esse Health whose records were stored in the affected systems
  • Anyone who received a data breach notification letter from Esse Health regarding the 2025 incident
  • Individuals whose sensitive information — such as Social Security numbers, medical records, or financial data — may have been exposed

How Much Can You Get?

The total settlement fund is $2.5 million. Individual payout amounts will depend on the number of valid claims submitted and the specific losses or damages each claimant experienced. Typically in data breach settlements, claimants can receive compensation for out-of-pocket losses tied to the breach (such as fraudulent charges or credit monitoring costs), as well as a base payment for the risk of having their information exposed. Exact individual payout amounts have not yet been publicly confirmed, so check back as more details become available.
