How hard is this claim to file?

Current and former Long Island Plastic Surgical Group patients whose information was exposed in the January 2024 ransomware attack must file a claim to receive any payment — there is no automatic payout. Claimants can choose between reimbursement for documented out-of-pocket losses or a pro rata cash payment, with an additional pro rata payment available if clinical photographs were compromised. This claim form asks for 6 fields and 3 documents.

What the form asks

  • — The unique ID printed on the settlement notice mailed to you. (Your settlement notice letter received by mail.)
  • — The PIN printed on the settlement notice mailed to you. (Your settlement notice letter received by mail.)
  • — Choose between digital payment or a paper check mailed to your address. (Selected during claim submission.)
  • — Indicate if you are claiming reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses directly linked to the data breach, up to the documented losses cap. (Your own financial records, receipts, and statements.)
  • — Indicate if you prefer the alternative pro rata cash payment instead of the documented losses reimbursement. (Selected on the claim form.)
  • — Indicate if your clinical photographs were among the compromised data in order to claim the additional pro rata payment. (Based on your knowledge of the type of data LIPSG held about you; the breach notice may also specify this.)

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • You must provide the unique ID and PIN from your settlement notice — claims cannot be processed without this information.
  • Documented loss reimbursements require supporting documentation; unsupported expenses will not be reimbursed.
  • The pro rata alternative cash payment and clinical photograph payment amounts are not fixed — they depend on the total number of claims filed and will be determined by the settlement administrator.
  • Filing a documented losses claim and an alternative pro rata cash payment claim are mutually exclusive — choose the path that best suits your situation.
  • Payments are issued only after claim processing is complete and the court grants final approval of the settlement.

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.
