Patients affected by the Rebound Orthopedics data breach may be eligible to claim up to $5,000 plus free medical monitoring from a $2.5 million class action settlement.
If your personal information was compromised in the Rebound Orthopedics data breach settlement, you could be owed money. Rebound Orthopedics & Neurosurgery P.C., a Vancouver, Washington-based orthopedic and neurosurgery practice, agreed to resolve a class action lawsuit after a February 2024 data breach exposed the sensitive information of more than 426,000 patients.
The company denies any wrongdoing but chose to settle rather than face a drawn-out trial. The result: a $2,500,000 settlement fund with real money available to affected patients – and you don’t need a lawyer or extensive paperwork to get it.

Settlement fund breakdown
The $2,500,000 settlement fund covers:
When is the Rebound Orthopedics data settlement payout date?
The settlement administrator will issue payments after the court grants final approval and resolves any appeals. The fairness hearing is scheduled for June 12, 2026. No specific payout date has been announced – this is standard at this stage of the process.
Payouts typically begin 60 to 90 days after final approval if no appeals are filed. If objections or appeals delay the process, it could take longer.
Why did this class action settlement happen?
The class action lawsuit alleged that Rebound Orthopedics & Neurosurgery P.C. experienced a data breach on or around February 1, 2024 that exposed the personal and medical information of approximately 426,000 patients. The plaintiffs claimed the practice failed to implement adequate cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive patient data.
The exposed information reportedly included full names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, medical information, health insurance information, and financial account information. Rebound Orthopedics denies any wrongdoing but agreed to settle to avoid the uncertainty and expense of continued litigation.
Is the Rebound Orthopedics data breach settlement legitimate?
Yes – this is a fully court-supervised settlement. Here’s what confirms it:
- Case number: 25-2-00545-06, filed in the Superior Court for Clark County, Washington
- Administrator: Simpluris Inc., an established and independent claims administrator
- Official site: rebounddatasettlement.com
- Notice: Sent directly by the administrator to affected patients – not by Rebound Orthopedics
The Rebound Orthopedics data breach settlement is pending final court approval at the June 12, 2026 fairness hearing. Claims must be filed before May 28, 2026 – no payments will be issued before final approval.
How much will I actually receive from the Rebound Orthopedics settlement?
It depends on two things: what you claim and how many people file. The $2,500,000 fund is split among all valid claimants after deducting legal fees and administration costs.
- ~$75 flat (no docs needed) – the alternative cash payment. The actual amount is pro rata based on the total number of claims filed, so it could be slightly higher or lower.
- Up to $5,000 (documented losses) – requires receipts, statements, or other records showing expenses tied to the breach.
- Medical monitoring – two years of CyEx Medical Shield Complete with $1,000,000 identity theft insurance, available to everyone at no cost.
With 426,000 affected patients, the per-person payout depends heavily on how many people actually file. Most people will likely receive the ~$75 alternative cash payment plus free medical monitoring – which is still worth claiming for five minutes of effort.
What actually happened in the Rebound Orthopedics data breach?
On or around February 1, 2024, Rebound Orthopedics & Neurosurgery P.C. – a Vancouver, Washington-based orthopedic and neurosurgery practice – experienced a data breach that compromised patient records across their systems.
What was exposed: Full names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, medical information, health insurance information, and financial account information. This is one of the more severe data exposures in recent healthcare breaches because it includes both financial and medical records.
Scale of the breach: Over 426,000 patients were potentially affected – a significant number for a regional medical practice.
What the lawsuit claims: The plaintiffs alleged that Rebound Orthopedics failed to implement reasonable security measures to protect patient data, and that the breach could have been prevented with proper safeguards.
What Rebound Orthopedics says: They deny any wrongdoing but agreed to a $2,500,000 settlement rather than face a potentially larger verdict at trial.
Why do companies settle data breach lawsuits even when they deny wrongdoing?
Settlement does not mean admission of guilt. Companies settle for practical reasons:
- Litigation costs: Legal fees alone can exceed the settlement amount, especially in cases involving hundreds of thousands of affected individuals
- Unpredictable outcomes: Trials are risky – a jury verdict could result in a far larger payout than the negotiated settlement
- Reputational damage: Settling ends years of ongoing litigation and reduces negative press coverage for the practice
- Guaranteed resolution: For plaintiffs, it guarantees a payout rather than risking nothing at trial
Courts still review every class action settlement to confirm it’s fair and reasonable – that’s what the June 12, 2026 fairness hearing is for. Denying wrongdoing while settling is standard practice and has no effect on your right to file a claim.
