Change Healthcare Data Breach Investigation

If your medical practice or pharmacy was affected by the Change Healthcare data breach, you may be able to participate in a class action to collect money for the harm you’ve suffered.

Berger Montague is investigating how the massive Change Healthcare data breach has crippled the U.S. healthcare system and how it has damaged healthcare providers and pharmacies. Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group that provides revenue and payment cycle management in the healthcare industry, announced on February 21, 2024 that a “cyber security issue” was causing a widespread network interruption. In the following days, healthcare providers and pharmacies across the country were essentially cut off from insurance payers as Change Healthcare, which reportedly processes 14 billion transactions per year, took its systems offline as a result of the data breach. Russian ransomware group ALPHV/BlackCat has claimed responsibility for the breach.

Healthcare providers and pharmacies are still feeling the impacts of the breach and Change Healthcare’s decision to take its systems offline. Providers are struggling to run their practices amid reduced cash flows and vital services patients rely on are at risk.
