File only through the official settlement website (www.essehealthsettlement.com); a genuine settlement administrator never charges a fee to file. SettleSignal last checked this record against the official source on June 20, 2026. Always confirm the current details on the official site before filing.
Who may qualify for this settlement?
Individuals identified by Esse Health's records whose Private Information was potentially compromised in the April 2025 Esse Health Data Incident.
What is the claim deadline?
The claim deadline is August 4, 2026. Confirm the current deadline on the official settlement source before filing.
Do I need proof to claim?
Proof requirement: No. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.
What is the current payment status?
Current payment status: Final approval pending. Payments are issued by the administrator after the court process concludes.
When will Esse Health Data Incident Settlement pay out?
Current payment status: Final approval pending. Class-action payouts typically begin only after final approval and any appeals. See our payout timeline guide.
Where is the official Esse Health Data Incident Settlement claim form?
The official claim form is hosted by the settlement administrator, Simpluris. Use the 'Open official claim form' button on this page — never pay a fee to file.
Do I have to do anything to get the Medical Identity Protection?
No. Every class member is automatically enrolled and will receive an activation code once the court gives final approval to the settlement. You don't need to file a claim for this benefit.
How do I get the cash payment?
File a claim by August 4, 2026. The fastest way is online at essehealthsettlement.com/form/claim. You can also mail in the tear-off form that came with your postcard notice, or download and print the form from the settlement website.
Will I definitely get $50?
The $50 is an estimate. The actual amount depends on the total number of valid claims filed and the deductions for court expenses, attorney fees, and administration costs. Your payment could end up higher or lower than $50.
What if I miss the August 4 deadline?
If you don't file a claim by August 4, 2026, you won't receive a cash payment. You'll still be part of the settlement unless you opted out, which means you give up the right to sue Esse Health separately over this breach.
What information was exposed, and what should I watch for?
Exposed information varied by person and could include names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, health insurance details, and medical record numbers. It's a good idea to monitor your credit reports and watch for suspicious activity — the Medical Identity Protection benefit is specifically there to help with this.
Where to act
When you are ready, you open the official claim form yourself. SettleSignal does not file claims or determine eligibility.
You'll need the Claim ID from your notice
The official claim form asks for the Claim ID (or Notice ID) the settlement mailed or emailed to the people it identified. Didn't get one? Here's how to get it:
- Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
- Still can't find it? Contact the settlement administrator (Simpluris), tell them you believe you're a class member (for example, a customer or patient in the covered period), and ask them to look you up and send your Claim ID.
Not ready to file today? Track it free — we'll remind you 30, 14, 7, and 1 day before Aug 4, 2026, and keep your claim details in one place.
