AMN Healthcare is paying $4.5 million over claims it recorded medical interpretation sessions in California without telling anyone. The case is Carrero v. AMN Healthcare, No. 37-2023-00052448-CU-NP-CTL, in San Diego County Superior Court, brought under the California Invasion of Privacy Act: patients spoke with their doctors through AMN's language interpreters, and the lawsuit says those conversations were monitored or recorded without notice or consent. AMN says it stopped recording sessions in January 2024 and stopped monitoring them that November. The class is anyone physically present in California who took part in a conversation interpreted by AMN or someone acting on its behalf, between December 4, 2022 and August 7, 2026. Payment requires a claim, and there's a step before the claim: register at the settlement site first, and the administrator emails you a Class Member ID that unlocks the online form. Each claimant gets a proportionate share of whatever remains after fees and costs, capped at $10,000 per person. No flat estimate has been published, so be wary of anyone promising a number. Everything is due October 27, 2026 β€” the claim and the ways out of it alike.
