Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- The deadline listed in the notice was June 11, 2026. That date may already be behind you — check the settlement site before doing anything else.
- Credit monitoring is automatic. You do not need to file to get two years of three-bureau monitoring.
- The pro-rata cash amount isn't set in stone. It depends on how many people file and how much is left in the fund after documented-loss claims are paid.
- Two separate organizations were breached. Make sure you know which one (or both) you're tied to before filing.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.

What is the claim deadline?

Do I need proof to claim?
Proof requirement: Optional. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.
Where is the official Excelsior Orthopaedics Data Breach Settlement claim form?
No separate claim form is required for this settlement — eligible class members are handled through the official administrator or government program. Confirm details on the official source.
Do I still get anything if I missed the claim deadline?
The claim filing deadline was June 11, 2026, and it has passed. However, if you're in the class, the automatic two years of credit monitoring should still be available to you — check the settlement website at excelsiordatasettlement.com for current status.
What does 'three-bureau credit monitoring' mean?
It means your credit files at all three major bureaus — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — are watched for suspicious activity. If something new shows up, you get an alert so you can act quickly.
How do I know if I was included in the breach?
If you received a notice in the mail or by email from Excelsior Orthopaedics or Buffalo Surgery Center about the June 2024 breach, you're in the class. You can also check the settlement website for more details.
What kind of losses could people claim up to $5,000 for?
The $5,000 cap was for documented out-of-pocket losses related to the breach — things like costs to fix credit issues, unauthorized charges, or time spent dealing with fraud. Documentation was required to support those claims.
Is there anything I need to do right now?
The filing deadline has passed, so no new claims can be submitted. Watch for instructions from the settlement administrator about how to activate your credit monitoring if you haven't done so already.
