Minnesota Epilepsy Group Investigated Over March Data Breach
Patients at the Roseville-based Minnesota Epilepsy Group are facing potential identity theft following a security compromise this past March. The breach exposed sensitive medical records and personal identifiers, prompting a national consumer rights law firm to launch an investigation into the extent of the data exposure.
Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz LLP is currently gathering information from individuals affected by the incident. According to the firm, the stolen data includes names, home addresses, dates of birth, and Social Security numbers. Crucially, the breach also compromised private medical treatment records and health insurance details, raising concerns that the information may already be circulating on the dark web.
Those who have received formal notification from the clinic or observed suspicious activity on their financial or medical accounts are encouraged to reach out to the firm’s legal team. Wolf Haldenstein, which maintains offices in New York, Chicago, Nashville, and San Diego, is evaluating the potential for litigation to address the failure to secure patient privacy. Affected individuals can contact the firm at (800) 575-0735 or reach out via their official website to discuss their legal rights and potential claims.
