The Planned Parenthood class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on September 12, 2025 and covers approximately 60,402 individuals in the United States who received notice that their private information may have been impacted by the August 2024 data breach.

The court-approved website for the Planned Parenthood class action settlement can be found at https://www.PPMTSettlement.com/.

According to the settlement site, Planned Parenthood settlement class members who submit a valid, timely claim form have multiple options for reimbursement. Those who submit with their claim form documented proof of out-of-pocket losses are eligible to receive a one-time cash payment up to $5,000. The site specifies that reimbursable losses must have been incurred as a result of the data breach and include costs related to identity theft, credit reports, credit monitoring, and ID replacement.

Furthermore, class members may also submit a Planned Parenthood claim form for reimbursement for lost time spent remedying issues stemming from the data breach, at a rate of $20 per hour, for a maximum of four hours.

Per court documents, class members have the option to receive cash payouts via check or electronic payment, and all checks must be cashed within 90 days after issuance before expiration.

In addition to monetary reimbursement, all settlement class members are also eligible to enroll in two free years of CyEx Medical Shield Pro, which provides data monitoring for health insurance information, medical records, health savings account spending, and medical identity fraud, the settlement website adds.

To submit a Planned Parenthood settlement claim form online, class members can head to this page and enter the class member notice ID found on their copy of the settlement notice. Consumers who believe that they may be a class member but did not receive a settlement notice should contact the settlement administrator to confirm their identity and receive their login details.

Alternatively, class members can download a PDF of the claim form to print, fill out, and return by mail to the address listed near the bottom of the second page of the document.

Planned Parenthood settlement claim forms must be submitted online or by mail by January 12, 2026.

The court will determine whether to grant final approval to the Planned Parenthood settlement at a hearing on December 15, 2025. Compensation will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval is granted and any appeals are resolved.

The Intermountain Planned Parenthood class action lawsuit alleged that an unauthorized party attacked the Montana healthcare provider’s systems in August 2024, potentially compromising the private information of over 60,000 individuals. Per court documents, the consumer data impacted by the data breach included, but was not limited to, names, addresses, dates of birth, medical history, health insurance information, contact information and treatment information.
