You may be entitled to make a claim for compensation as a victim of a healthcare data breach. These types of cases are often severe because of the information that can be exposed. Medical data is normally classed as very personal and incredibly sensitive. If it's exposed, leaked or hacked, the distress for that a victim can suffer is often severe.
A huge number of the legal cases we're fighting justice for involves healthcare data breaches. They can be common, and they can include data that's exposed by:
Any healthcare company involved in a data breach - whether it's a part of the NHS or a private institution - can be liable to compensate victims of an incident. Whether it's a simple case of medical information being sent to the wrong person, or a cyberattack that's exposed medical data, healthcare companies and organisations have an important duty to protect the data they store and process.
When they fail to uphold the duty they have to protect your data, or where they misuse your data, you can be entitled to claim damages for any distress and financial losses caused.
There have been a number of infamous healthcare data breach incidents in recent years that we've been fighting for justice in.
These include:
Thousands of people have approached the Data Leak lawyers for help. Many of the individual cases we take forward are against healthcare companies for data breaches, and many are as awful as the infamous actions we're representing people for as well.
Although we can't discuss individual cases, we can tell you from experience that the consequences for the victims can be absolutely devastating.
Healthcare company data breach compensation claims can sometimes attract high awards. This is especially the case when the information that has been exposed is private and sensitive medical data.
In most cases, it's a medical data breach, and the victim may suffer serious distress as a result of the incident.
Each claim must be assessed on a case-by-case basis. We use our many years of experience together with expert evidence to value a claim. We can also look at past cases that have settled in court as case law, as well as official guidelines when it comes to the severity of the suffering that a victim endures.
We also work closely with experienced barristers as well.
In straightforward cases where there has been an exposure of important data, claims could settle for up to £4,000.00. However, in cases where private and very sensitive data has been exposed, claims can be valued up to £25,000.00.
Of course, the values could go even higher than that. It's all subjective to the case and the information that has been exposed.
Medical data can easily fall into the category of private and sensitive. Where a breach means that medical data has been exposed forever, the impact on the victim can be huge. Any award of compensation must always reflect what a victim has - and will continue to - experience.
