A deadline is approaching for eligible Sutter Health patients in California to claim part of a $21.5 million class action settlement tied to alleged data privacy violations.<\/p>\n
Patients who logged into their Sutter online patient portal between 2015 and 2020 have until May 5 to file a claim for their part of the settlement of a 2019 lawsuit filed in Sacramento Superior Court on behalf of 1.6 million consumers<\/p>\n
The suit, Jane Doe I and Jane Doe II et al v. Sutter Health, alleged Sutter disclosed patients’ personally identifiable information and protected health information to third parties without consent by using third-party tracking technologies on some webpages, including the MyHealthOnline portal.<\/p>\n
Sutter denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n
The two sides reached a settlement<\/a> in 2025, and the court approved it earlier this year.<\/p>\n Consumers are eligible for a cash payment of up to $90 from the settlement fund if they were California residents who logged into the Sutter online portal between June 10, 2015, and March 20, 2020.<\/p>\n Sutter patients who are unsure whether they are eligible can check the settlement website’s FAQ section<\/a> or call toll-free 1-888-835-0109.<\/p>\n Claims can be submitted online<\/a> or mailed and postmarked by May 5. The claim form<\/a> can be mailed to Sutter Health Analytics Litigation Settlement Administrator, P.O. Box 4276 Portland, OR 97208-4276.<\/p>\n
