Penn Medicine myPennMedicine Pixel Tracking Settlement

Penn Medicine / University of Pennsylvania Health System has agreed to a $9,250,000 settlement over alleged pixel tracking on the myPennMedicine patient portal between January 23, 2021 and January 23, 2023. Eligible patients who had a Pennsylvania address on file may claim up to $15 per valid claim with no proof required. File at uphspixelsettlement.com. Claim deadline: September 16, 2026.

Do I Qualify?

You may be eligible if:

• You accessed the myPennMedicine patient portal between January 23, 2021 and January 23, 2023
• You had a Pennsylvania address on file at the time of portal access
• You are filing as a covered patient (not a non-patient visitor)
• You submit a valid claim online or by mail by September 16, 2026
• You understand this is a flat up-to-$15 cash claim — not a documented medical identity-theft reimbursement program

Proof Required: No. File online at uphspixelsettlement.com/Login or mail the PDF claim form. No receipts, screenshots, or medical records are required for the flat cash payment of up to $15. Provide accurate contact and payment information so the administrator can match your claim to class records and issue payment after final approval.

What Happened?

The lawsuit alleges that tracking pixels embedded on the myPennMedicine patient portal shared patient information with third parties without adequate consent during the January 23, 2021 through January 23, 2023 class period. The class covers patients who accessed the portal and had a Pennsylvania address on file at the time. Similar pixel-tracking healthcare privacy cases have been filed against other health systems nationwide.

Penn Medicine / University of Pennsylvania Health System denies wrongdoing and agreed to settle the claims to avoid the cost and uncertainty of continued litigation. The settlement does not include an admission of liability.

The $9,250,000 settlement funds flat cash payments of up to $15 per valid claim after attorneys' fees (up to $3,700,000) and service awards (up to $50,000) are deducted. There is only one cash path — a modest flat payment — and no proof or receipts are required to claim. Exact per-claim amounts may be reduced if the number of valid claims requires a pro rata adjustment of the net fund.

This is a healthcare privacy / pixel-tracking settlement, not a traditional data breach reimbursement case with documented out-of-pocket loss tiers. Eligible patients file at the court-authorized settlement site uphspixelsettlement.com/Login.

Claims must be submitted online or postmarked by September 16, 2026. Payments issue after final approval and resolution of any appeals. Always use the official administrator site linked on this page — SuitAlert does not process claims.
