Who was covered

Individuals who reside in the United States who were notified by Lake Charles Memorial Health in December 2022 that their personal health information and/or personally identifiable information may have been impacted by the data incident.

Where to claim

The administrator’s site is LakeCharlesSettlement.com. The window is closed, so it is there for the record, not to file.

Being in the breach is not the same as being in the class. Class membership usually turns on having received the company’s own notice letter, and only the settlement administrator can confirm it. We are not lawyers, we take no fee from any claim, and we never file on anyone’s behalf.
