Proof Required?
Western Montana Clinic is facing a class action settlement related to a data breach that may have exposed the personal and medical information of its patients. If you received a notice that your data was compromised β€” or if you were a patient of Western Montana Clinic and believe your information may have been affected β€” you could be entitled to compensation. Data breaches at healthcare providers are especially serious because the information exposed can include sensitive details like Social Security numbers, medical records, insurance information, and more. This settlement is designed to compensate people whose private data was put at risk due to the clinic's alleged failure to adequately protect it. The settlement offers affected individuals up to $5,000, depending on the type and extent of harm they experienced. The deadline to file a claim is September 15, 2026, so it's important to act before time runs out.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You were a patient of Western Montana Clinic whose personal or medical information was involved in the data breach
  • You received a data breach notification letter from Western Montana Clinic informing you that your information may have been compromised
  • Your personal information β€” such as name, Social Security number, medical records, or insurance details β€” was potentially exposed as a result of the breach
  • You reside in the United States and were affected during the relevant time period covered by the breach (details pending official settlement documentation)

How Much Can You Get?

Eligible claimants may receive up to $5,000 through this settlement. The exact amount you receive will likely depend on the type of harm you experienced and the documentation you can provide. Those who can show out-of-pocket losses directly tied to the breach β€” such as costs related to identity theft, fraudulent charges, or credit monitoring services β€” may be eligible for higher compensation. Even if you did not experience direct financial harm, you may still qualify for a base-level payment for the general exposure of your personal information. Final payout amounts may also be affected by the total number of valid claims submitted, so filing early and completely is in your best interest.

File directly with the settlement administrator, using the official claim form linked on this page. Class Action Buddy does not support this settlement in the app, so the administrator’s own claim process is the route. Check whether the form asks for an ID or PIN from the notice you were sent before you start.
