This one is closed, but our 60-second eligibility quiz finds the ones that are still open.
Who Was Eligible?
Who the settlement covered:
- You received a data breach notification letter from Hillcrest Convalescent Center informing you that your personal information was compromised.
- Your information was stored in Hillcrest's systems at the time of the breach — this may include current or former patients, residents, or employees.
- You are a member of the SSN Subclass if your Social Security number was specifically exposed in the breach, which qualifies you for a higher flat cash payment.
- You have documented out-of-pocket losses tied to the breach (such as fraudulent charges, credit monitoring costs, or time spent resolving identity theft issues) and wish to claim up to $2,500 in reimbursement.
How Much Did It Pay?
The settlement offers several ways to get compensated depending on your situation. If your Social Security number was exposed, you may be part of the SSN Subclass and can receive a flat $50 cash payment without needing to document specific losses. All eligible class members can also claim up to $2,500 in reimbursement for documented out-of-pocket expenses related to the breach — things like bank fees, credit monitoring subscriptions you paid for, or costs associated with dealing with identity theft. On top of the cash options, every eligible claimant can enroll in two years of free credit monitoring services, which includes $1 million in identity theft insurance coverage. This is a valuable benefit even if you haven't experienced any fraud yet, as data exposed in breaches like this can be misused months or years down the line.How this claim was filed
