WellNow/Aspen Dental Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the WellNow/Aspen Dental data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
TAG Urgent Care Support Services, whose brands include Aspen Dental and WellNow Urgent Care, has reported a data breach affecting more than 515,000 people.
According to notices sent to affected individuals, Aspen and WellNow were impacted by a ransomware attack on April 25, 2023. Following a review of files removed as a result of the security incident, the companies found in mid-December that certain individuals’ personal information may have been subject to unauthorized access.
Notices are now being sent to those affected by the data breach, including both adult patients and the parents/guardians of minor urgent care patients. The letters point out that some individuals may have visited an urgent care clinic operating as Physicians Immediate Care, which is part of WellNow.
Data exposed in the breach includes full names, addresses, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, government-issued ID numbers, dates of birth and medical information.
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 WellNow/Aspen Dental to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
