Proof Required?
Summit Medical Group is a Tennessee physician practice, and a data incident there put patient information at risk. The notice letter is the test: if one reached you, you are in the class the court defined, which covers living individuals in the United States whose private information was potentially compromised. Credit monitoring is open to everyone. The cash side offers two routes and they work differently from most breach settlements. Documented losses pay up to $2,500 against receipts. The other route pays for lost time rather than a flat alternative, so it suits people who spent hours sorting the mess out rather than money. Payments drop to a pro rata basis if claims push past $500,000, which is worth knowing before you count on a figure. The case is Harris v. Summit Medical Group in Knox County, Tennessee. Claims close November 4, 2026.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • Living individuals in the United States whose private information was potentially compromised in the incident, including everyone mailed a notice.
  • Patients are the usual route in, since Summit Medical Group is a Tennessee physician practice.

How Much Can You Get?

Credit monitoring is available to everyone.

Cash Payment A reimburses documented losses up to $2,500 against receipts — credit report fees, freezing and unfreezing credit, replacing identity documents, postage.

Cash Payment B pays for lost time rather than offering a flat alternative, which is unusual. It suits people who spent hours dealing with the incident rather than money.

Payments go pro rata above $500,000. If claims exceed that, everyone’s share is scaled down, so treat the caps as ceilings rather than expectations.

What is the lost time option?
