Change Healthcare Seeks Dismissal of Data Breach Lawsuits Brought by Consumers and Medical Providers

Posted on March 28, 2025March 28, 2025 by Dissent

Irvin Jackson reports:

Change Healthcare Inc. has filed a number of motions to dismiss lawsuits brought on behalf of both individuals and healthcare providers, seeking damages for a massive data breach last year, which exposed private health information for about a third of all Americans, and disrupted the processing of medical payments for providers nationwide.

… Given common questions of fact and law raised in the litigation, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) centralized the federal lawsuits in the District of Minnesota in June 2024, appointing U.S. District Judge Donovan Frank to preside over coordinated discovery and pretrial proceedings.

However, on March 21, Change Healthcare issued motions to dismiss the individual claims (PDF), provider claims (PDF) and other claims seeking credit monitoring for those impacted by the data breach.

In a memorandum (PDF) accompanying the motion to dismiss credit monitoring claims, Change Healthcare indicated the court lacks personal jurisdiction for all non-Minnesota plaintiffs.
