Wayne Memorial Hospital (Georgia) is settling a June 2024 unauthorized-access incident that led to notice for about 163,440 people — a different case from the Fort Wayne Medical Education Program settlement. Class members may claim documented losses up to $5,000 or Alternate Cash (about $25). The $300,000 class-wide cap applies only to the Alternate Cash tier, not to documented-loss claims or the settlement as a whole. Credit monitoring auto-enrolls with no claim required. Deadline: December 7, 2026.
