The WebTPA class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on August 20, 2025 and covers anyone who was notified by WebTPA Employer Services, Hartford Life and Accident Insurance, Anthem Blue Cross Life and Health Insurance or Elevance Health that their personal data may have been compromised in the April 2023 data breach.
The court-approved website for the WebTPA data breach settlement can be found at WebTPASettlement.com.
Per the official settlement site, WebTPA settlement class members who submit a timely, valid claim form will be able to receive medical information monitoring and either reimbursement up to $5,000 for losses resulting from the data breach or a flat cash payment of $100.
Class members who were California residents from April 18 to April 23, 2023 will be able to submit a claim for an additional cash payment of approximately $50, the class action settlement website says.
In order to claim loss reimbursement, class members must submit documentation to support each claimed loss. A loss can only be claimed if it has not already been reimbursed or compensated by another source, the site says.
Class members can, alternatively, choose to receive a flat cash payment of $100, which does not require the submission of any documentation or proof. This flat payment is mutually exclusive from the loss reimbursement option, and class members can only claim one or the other, the settlement website explains/
All cash payments may be subject to adjustment on a pro-rata, or equal-share, basis depending on the total number of valid claims filed.
The medical monitoring offered through the settlement is available to all class members and includes two years of CyEx Medical Shield monitoring, which will provide up to $1,000,000 insurance coverage for medical identity theft, medical identity monitoring and real-time alerts.
To file a claim form online, class members can visit this page and log in with the class member ID found in their copy of the settlement notice.
Alternatively, a PDF of the claim form is available to print, fill out and mail back to the address listed on the first page of the form.
All WebTPA settlement claim forms must be submitted online or postmarked by November 4, 2025.
As part of the settlement, the defendants have also agreed to increase security in their systems and environments to better protect customers’ personal information.
A hearing is scheduled for November 19, 2025 to determine whether the class action settlement will receive final court approval. Settlement benefits will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval has been granted and any appeals have been resolved.
The WebTPA class action lawsuit claimed that WebTPA, The Hartford, Anthem Blue Cross and Elevance Health failed to properly protect customers’ personal data against an April 2023 data breach.
