Overview
The settlement resolves allegations that a targeted cyberattack on Albany Gastroenterology Consultants' systems in November 2024 allowed access to files containing private information. The case is Clements v. Albany Gastroenterology Consultants, PLLC, No. 2026-008885-CA-01, in the Circuit Court of Miami-Dade County, Florida. Albany Gastro denies wrongdoing, and the court has not decided which side is right.

What you could receive
Class members may claim up to $2,500 for actual, documented out-of-pocket losses caused by the data breach, or choose an alternative payment expected to be $10 that may increase or decrease based on valid claims. The cash benefits are capped at $200,000, split equally between the two cash-payment categories. Class members are also eligible for two years of CyEx Medical Shield Complete with $1 million in medical identity theft insurance; the administrator says this monitoring does not require a claim form.
