You may be eligible to receive a payment from a proposed $425,000.00 non-reversionary class action settlement (the “Qualified Settlement Fund”).

The class action lawsuit concerns a data security incident that occurred in September 2023 (the “Data Incident”) involving Columbus Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery (“Defendant” or “CAPS”) in which one or more unauthorized individuals accessed information on a database belonging to CAPS, including names, addresses, Social Security numbers, medical billing information, and financial account information (collectively, “Private Information”). CAPS denies any wrongdoing or that it is or can be held liable for the claims made in the lawsuit.

To be eligible to make a claim, you must have received a Notice of Data Security Incident letter regarding the CAPS Data Security Incident that occurred in September 2023.
