About the case
The lawsuit alleges that in a September 2024 targeted cyberattack on Summit Medical Group's computer systems, files with private information were accessed, which may have included names, medical record numbers, treatment and health insurance details and Social Security numbers. Summit Medical denies that it did anything wrong. The parties agreed to settle to avoid the costs and risks of continuing the case, and the court has not yet given final approval.
