Palomar Health Medical Group Data Breach Settlement

Palomar Health Medical Group (legally Arch Health Partners, Inc.) has agreed to a $3.1 million common-fund settlement for people whose private information was compromised in a cybersecurity incident between April 23 and May 5, 2024. Class members choose one cash path: documented losses up to $5,000 or an alternate cash payment currently estimated around $60 (that estimate can move up or down with claims volume). Two years of credit monitoring with $1 million identity-fraud insurance is available with either choice and does not use up your cash option. Deadline: October 22, 2026. File at phmgdatasettlement.com.

• Class period: April 23, 2024 – May 5, 2024
• You file a valid claim by October 22, 2026

What Happened?

A cybersecurity incident on Palomar Health Medical Group (Arch Health Partners, Inc.) systems between April 23 and May 5, 2024 compromised private information. Affected people were notified by mail.

The parties reached a $3.1 million common-fund settlement covering benefits, administration, and any court-awarded fees, costs, and service awards.

Claimants pick Cash Payment A (documented losses up to $5,000) or Cash Payment B (alternate cash, currently estimated around $60, no documentation). The $60 figure can move up or down because it is paid from the leftover net fund. Two years of single-bureau credit monitoring with $1 million identity-fraud insurance can be claimed with either cash path or on its own.

How Much Will I Actually Get?

Cash Payment A reimburses up to $5,000 for documented, unreimbursed losses tied to the incident. Cash Payment B is an alternate cash payment currently estimated around $60 with no documentation required — that estimate can move up as well as down depending on how many people file, because it comes out of a shared net fund. Two years of single-bureau credit monitoring with $1 million identity-fraud insurance is available on top of either cash choice, or on its own, at no cost to the cash payment. Pick one cash option, not both.
