- A Court authorized this Settlement Website to notice those that are eligible to receive Settlement benefits from a proposed class action Settlement. The Action is titled Dunlop, et al. v. Bayhealth Medical Center, Inc., Case No. N25C-10-167 and is pending in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware. The people that filed the class action lawsuit are called Plaintiffs or Class Representatives and the company they sued is Bayhealth Medical Center, Inc. ("Defendant" or "Bayhealth"). Bayhealth denies any wrongdoing whatsoever.
- Who is a Settlement Class Member?
The persons who are identified on the Settlement Class List prepared by Defendant, which includes all individuals residing in the United States whose Personal Information was potentially compromised in the Data Incident discovered by Bayhealth in July 2024, including all those individuals who received notice of the Data Incident.
Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (1) the judges presiding over this Action, and members of their direct families; (2) Defendant, its subsidiaries, parent companies, successors, predecessors, and any entity in which Defendant or its parents have a controlling interest; and (3) Settlement Class Members who submit a valid Request for Exclusion prior to the Opt-Out Deadline.
- Settlement Class Members under the Settlement Agreement will be eligible to receive one or more of the following Settlement benefits:
- Pro Rata Cash Payment: All Settlement Class Members may submit a claim for a Pro Rata Cash Payment from the Net Settlement Fund, estimated at $60, with the final payment amounts adjusted up or down depending on the number of Approved Claims submitted, by submitting a Claim Form to the Settlement Administrator no later than the Claims Deadline;
- Reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Losses: In addition to the Pro Rata Cash Payment, all Settlement Class Members may submit a claim for Out-of-Pocket Losses. All Settlement Class Members may submit a claim for up to $5,000 for reimbursement of Out-of-Pocket Losses.
- Pro Rata Cash Payment: All Settlement Class Members may submit a claim for a Pro Rata Cash Payment from the Net Settlement Fund, estimated at $60, with the final payment amounts adjusted up or down depending on the number of Approved Claims submitted, by submitting a Claim Form to the Settlement Administrator no later than the Claims Deadline;
IN ADDITION TO A SETTLEMENT PAYMENT, ALL SETTLEMENT CLASS MEMBERS MAY ALSO SUBMIT A CLAIM FOR THE FOLLOWING:
- Medical Monitoring Services: All Settlement Class Members are eligible to enroll in two (2) years of Medical Monitoring Services.
In the event that funds remaining in the Net Settlement Fund after the payment for Approved Claims for Out-of-Pocket Losses and Medical Monitoring Services are not sufficient to make payment for the full amount of the Approved Claims for Pro Rata Cash Payments (i.e., $60 per Approved Claim), then the value of the Approved Claims for Pro Rata Cash Payments shall be reduced on a pro rata basis, such that the aggregate value of all payments for Approved Claims does not exceed the Net Settlement Fund. The Pro Rata Cash Payment amount may also be increased based on the amount of the Net Settlement Fund and the number of Approved Claims submitted. To ensure that the maximum amount of the Net Settlement Fund is distributed, following the payment of Approved Claims for Out-of-Pocket Losses and Approved Claims for Medical Monitoring Services, the amount remaining in the Net Settlement Fund shall be divided by the number of Settlement Class Members who submit Approved Claims for Pro Rata Cash Payments and allocated on a pro rata basis to all Settlement Class Members who submitted Approved Claims for Pro Rata Cash Payments.
