Northeast Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Data Breach:

Lawsuit Investigation

Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Northeast Orthopedics and Sports Medicine data breach.

As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.

Northeast Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, PLLC discovered suspicious activity on its network on November 22, 2023, prompting an investigation aided by third-party forensic experts. By December 29, 2023, possible unauthorized access to certain data was identified, potentially exposing the personal information of 177,101 individuals, including patient names, Social Security numbers, driver's license details, payment information, birthdates, medical record information, health insurance specifics, and treatment information. The orthopedic practice, which serves New York and Northern New Jersey, says it will be mailing letters to those affected, according to its online notice of the data breach. 

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 Northeast Orthopedics and Sports Medicine to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
