Veradigm Data Breach Lawsuits
Case Overview
Veradigm Inc. disclosed a cybersecurity incident that occurred through one of its third-party vendors. An unauthorized party gained access by using credentials stolen from the vendor's environment, which was connected to a Veradigm application programming interface. This allowed the party to download copies of patient data, though Veradigm stated that no clinical or medical data was compromised.
The allegations center on the exposure of personal patient data, which reports suggest includes names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and in some cases, Social Security numbers. The lawsuits stem from this data breach, which is alleged to have exposed sensitive personal information.
At least two lawsuits have been filed against Veradigm in Illinois federal court regarding this latest incident. The content notes that the company is currently reviewing the compromised data and notifying affected customers, but it does not provide specific settlement terms or a claims deadline for participation.
