Illinois Bone & Joint Institute Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Illinois Bone & Joint Institute data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Earlier this summer, Illinois Bone & Joint Institute (IBJI), a musculoskeletal healthcare organization based in the Chicago area, experienced a data breach involving unauthorized access to its computer systems. Detected on July 4, 2024, the breach allowed an unauthorized third party to access the IBJI network from May 30, 2024, to July 4, 2024, acquiring certain files during this period.
A review of the affected systems revealed that the personal information of 182,670 individuals was exposed, including names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, medical treatment or diagnosis information, and health insurance or claims information.
Individuals whose information was exposed in the Illinois Bone & Joint Institute data breach and for whom the company has contact information will receive written notice of the incident.
If your information was exposed in the breach, attorneys want to hear from you. You may be able to start a class action lawsuit to recover compensation for loss of privacy, time spent dealing with the breach, out-of-pocket costs, and more.
A successful case could also force Illinois Bone & Joint Institute to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
