What Each MyChart Settlement Paid
Fixed-payment settlements pay the same amount for every valid claim. Pro-rata settlements split what is left of the fund after fees and costs, so the amount per person falls as more people file.
How much can I expect to receive? Settlements that name a per-person amount mostly pay $15–$50 per valid claim — Henry Ford $15, Banner Health $20, Bayhealth $25, SSM Health $31.50. Many others, such as Duke, Cone Health and Wellstar, split a fund pro rata, so the amount depends on how many people file; LiveHealth Online estimates about $51–$102 per person. Only a settlement whose claim window is still open pays new claimants.

How to File a MyChart Claim Online
There is no single place to sign up online for every MyChart lawsuit. To sign up online, you file a claim at the official settlement website of your own hospital’s case — and only while its claim window is open.
Find your hospital’s case
Use the list above. Only a case with an open claim window takes new claims — a closed case pays only the people who filed in time.
Open the official settlement website
Use the web address printed on your notice or the official link on this page. Never follow a link in an unexpected email or text message.
Fill in the claim form
You give your name, address and email, plus the notice or class member ID if you received one. Without a notice, the website explains how to file — usually by confirming, under penalty of perjury, that you used the website or portal during the class period.
Choose how to get paid and keep your confirmation
Pick a payment method — a check or a digital option, depending on the case — and save the confirmation page or email. Money moves only after the court grants final approval, usually a few months after the claim deadline.
Is MyChart or Epic Being Sued?
Not in the cases on this page. Every one of them names the organization that ran the website or portal — a hospital, health system, insurer or telehealth company — not Epic Systems, the company that makes MyChart. The complaints we reviewed mention Epic, if at all, only as the maker of the portal software to which each hospital added its own analytics tools, such as the Meta Pixel or Google Analytics.
Other lawsuits against Epic
Epic has faced other lawsuits, none of them about tracking pixels and none with a payment you can claim: a 2026 patient class action over medical-record requests made through the Health Gorilla network (Banh v. Epic Systems, W.D. Wisconsin; related patient suits over that network are now combined in In re Health Gorilla, Inc., Data Security Breach Litigation, MDL No. 3193, S.D. Florida), a 2026 class action over MyChart access for people with disabilities (W.D. Texas), an antitrust suit by the Texas attorney general (December 2025) and an antitrust case brought by Particle Health (S.D.N.Y., 2024).
The Meta pixel case
Patients have also sued Meta directly. In the Meta pixel case (In re Meta Pixel Healthcare Litigation, N.D. Cal., No. 3:22-cv-03580), Facebook users claim Meta received data from hospital websites and patient portals through its pixel. The court heard the request for class certification on June 12, 2026; by early October 2026 there was no ruling, no settlement and nothing to file. There is no nationwide multidistrict litigation (MDL) for hospital pixel cases — each one runs separately.
The federal rules on online tracking
On the rules: in June 2024 a federal court in Texas (American Hospital Association v. Becerra) struck down one part of HHS’s guidance on online tracking — the position that an IP address combined with a visit to a public health page without a login can be protected health information. HHS dropped its appeal in August 2024. The court said its ruling did not limit the rest of that guidance.
MyChart Pixel-Tracking Settlement FAQs
Answers to the questions readers ask most about the MyChart settlements.
Is there one big MyChart class action settlement?
No. There are dozens of hospital-specific class actions and settlements over pixel-tracking on MyChart portals. Each case has its own class definition (patients of that specific hospital), its own settlement fund, its own administrator, and its own claim deadlines.
Is MyChart being sued?
Not in the cases on this page. MyChart is patient-portal software made by Epic Systems, and every MyChart settlement we track names the hospital, health system, insurer or telehealth company that ran the website or portal — not Epic. Epic has faced other lawsuits, but none of them is about tracking pixels and none has a payment you can claim. Patients have also sued Meta directly over the pixel (In re Meta Pixel Healthcare Litigation, N.D. Cal.); as of early October 2026 there was no settlement and nothing to file.
Why isn’t Epic Systems (the MyChart vendor) the defendant?
Because the hospital systems are the ones who chose to deploy Meta Pixel / Google Analytics on their websites and portals. Epic provides MyChart as software; the customization, tracking-tool deployment, and BAA compliance is the hospital’s responsibility. Plaintiffs’ firms have therefore sued hospitals directly under ECPA and state laws.
How much can I expect to receive?
Settlements that name a per-person amount mostly pay $15–$50 per valid claim — Henry Ford $15, Banner Health $20, Bayhealth $25, SSM Health $31.50. Many others, such as Duke, Cone Health and Wellstar, split a fund pro rata, so the amount depends on how many people file; LiveHealth Online estimates about $51–$102 per person. Only a settlement whose claim window is still open pays new claimants.
Was my Protected Health Information actually shared with Facebook?
Depends on the hospital and the specific page you visited. The Markup’s 2022 investigation documented that many hospital ‘Schedule Appointment’ pages sent specific clinical-context data to Facebook (e.g., physician name, medical specialty). Inside the MyChart portal itself, the trackers were typically narrower but still transmitted activity events. You don’t need to prove specific data disclosure to be a class member — the class definition is generally just portal/website use during the period.
I don’t remember if I used the portal during the class period — how do I check?
Log in to your MyChart account and check the activity history (some show login history). Old appointment confirmations, email receipts, or test-result notifications from your hospital are also good proof. The administrator typically accepts self-attestation under penalty of perjury in lieu of records.
Do I need a lawyer to file my MyChart class action claim?
No. Filing a class action claim form is free and straightforward. Class counsel already represents all class members. Submit your claim via the official administrator URL for your specific hospital case.
Is the MyChart settlement payout taxable?
Small per-class-member payments for privacy violations (mostly $15–$50, a few up to about $100) are usually treated case-by-case for tax purposes. At these amounts most recipients will not need to report separately. This is not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your specific case.
What if my hospital isn’t on the settlement list yet?
Many hospitals have not yet been sued or are at early-litigation stage. The wave is ongoing. If you use a MyChart portal at a hospital that hasn’t been named, you may be in a future class — track public reporting and consider preserving portal-use evidence (screenshots, login history).
Is there a MyChart lawsuit in Ohio, Michigan, or Washington state?
Not as state-wide cases — the pixel-tracking lawsuits are filed against individual hospitals, health systems and other providers, not against Epic (MyChart's maker) and not per state. Your eligibility depends mainly on which portal you logged into and when; some settlements also limit the class to residents of one state (Boone Health: Missouri; Fairchild Medical Center and Sutter Health: California; Penn Medicine: Pennsylvania). Check the case list on this page for your health system. If it isn't there, we have not found a settlement for it yet — a notice by mail or email is the surest sign that you are in a class.
When is the MyChart settlement payout date?
There is no single payout date — each hospital case pays on its own clock, and filing a claim now does not mean money now. Every settlement needs final court approval first; payment follows approval plus any appeal window, usually a few months later. Final approval hearings on the court calendars as of October 6, 2026: Fairchild Medical Center October 15, 2026; Bayhealth October 29, 2026; Cone Health November 5, 2026; Penn Medicine November 12, 2026; Emanate Health November 19, 2026; Wellstar and Boone Health December 1, 2026; MDLIVE January 6, 2027; LiveHealth Online January 15, 2027. Older cases have already paid — BJC on January 16, Mount Sinai on February 3 and SSM Health on March 31, 2026. The deadline that can’t wait is your claim itself — check each case’s claim window on this page.
Is There a MyChart Lawsuit in My State?
Your state usually doesn't decide your eligibility — the portal you logged into does, plus the class period. An Ohio patient whose health system never settled is in none.
Many classes are defined by portal use alone, but some settlements are limited to one state's residents (Boone Health: Missouri; Fairchild Medical Center and Sutter Health: California; Penn Medicine: Pennsylvania; Virginia Mason: Washington) — the official website has the exact definition.

Why there is no state-wide MyChart lawsuit
Searching “MyChart lawsuit Ohio”, “MyChart lawsuit Michigan” or “MyChart class action Washington state” leads nowhere — and that's not because you're missing the right page. MyChart is portal software made by Epic Systems; the lawsuits name individual hospitals and health systems, not Epic and not a state. Advocate Aurora settled for $12.225M, Henry Ford agreed to pay $15 per valid claim — each case belongs to the provider that allegedly wired its own portal with advertising trackers.
To find your case: go through the tracker above hospital by hospital, and ask “which patient portals have I logged into, and when?” Our deadline round-up lists the claim windows closing right now.
MyChart Settlement Scams — What to Watch For
Because so many hospital systems are facing similar pixel-tracking cases, scams promising “MyChart settlement money” are increasingly common. Recognize these patterns.
Fake “MyChart settlement” emails referencing Epic Systems
Epic Systems (the MyChart vendor) is generally NOT the defendant in these cases. Emails claiming to be from “Epic Systems” or a generic “MyChart Settlement Administrator” without naming your hospital are almost certainly phishing.
Calls asking for SSN or full bank info to release payment
Class administrators already have your information from your claim form. They will never cold-call you asking for SSN, full account numbers, or routing numbers. Hang up and contact the named hospital administrator directly.
Advance-fee scams (“pay to receive your MyChart settlement check”)
Real settlements never charge recipients a fee to receive funds. Any such request is fraud.
Generic “MyChart class action” websites
There is no single MyChart class action website — each hospital case has its own administrator website. Use only the web address printed on your official notice or listed on this page. A site with a generic name like “MyChart settlement” that does not name your hospital is likely a lead-generation or phishing site.
Credit-repair / identity-protection upsells citing your “Pixel data breach”
Some operators cold-call class members offering paid identity-protection services. These pixel cases do NOT involve credit-card or bank-account compromise — credit-repair services are unrelated.
The MyChart Pixel-Tracking Class Action Wave — What Happened
MyChart is Epic Systems’ patient portal — used by hundreds of US hospitals to let patients book appointments, view records, message providers, and pay bills. Starting around 2017, many hospital systems embedded third-party tracking technologies (Meta/Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, Conversions API) on their public websites and, in some cases, inside the MyChart patient portal itself.
Read the full background and timeline
In June 2022, The Markup reported that it had found the Meta Pixel on the websites of 33 of Newsweek’s top 100 hospitals in America, sending Facebook a packet of data whenever a patient clicked a button to schedule an appointment. In July 2023, the FTC and HHS sent a joint letter to approximately 130 hospital systems and telehealth providers warning about online tracking technologies that could disclose Private Information to third parties.
These regulatory signals catalyzed a litigation wave. By 2024–2025, dozens of US hospital systems had been sued in pixel-tracking class actions; many have already settled. Most settlements follow a common pattern: a fund from under $1 million to about $12 million (a few are larger — Kaiser Permanente’s is $46 million), a fixed $15–$50 per valid claim or a pro-rata share, a class period of several years, and a release of claims against the specific hospital. Epic Systems (the MyChart vendor) is generally NOT the defendant — the hospital that deployed the tracking is.
MyChart Pixel-Tracking Litigation Timeline
2017–2022: Hospitals Deploy Meta Pixel + Google Analytics
Hundreds of US hospital systems embed Facebook/Meta Pixel and Google Analytics on public websites and, in many cases, on patient-portal login pages — transmitting click events, search terms, and in some instances explicit health-related browsing data to ad networks.
June 2022: The Markup Investigation
The Markup reports finding the Meta Pixel on the websites of 33 of Newsweek’s top 100 hospitals in America, sending Facebook data when patients clicked to schedule an appointment. This investigation becomes a key trigger for subsequent plaintiff-side filings.
October 2022 – 2023: Disclosures + First Lawsuits Filed
Many hospital systems issue breach-style notifications about pixel use (e.g., Advocate Aurora’s October 2022 notification to about 3 million patients). Plaintiffs’ firms begin filing class actions invoking ECPA (federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act), state eavesdropping laws, breach of confidence, and HIPAA-derived theories.
July 2023: FTC and HHS Warn About 130 Providers
The Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Health and Human Services send a joint letter to approximately 130 hospital systems and telehealth providers about the privacy risks of online tracking technologies. This regulatory signal accelerates the litigation wave.
2024–2026: Wave of Settlements
Advocate Aurora $12.225M final approval July 10, 2024. Mount Sinai $5.3M announced August 2025. BJC Health up to $9.25M announced July 2025. Henry Ford Health ($15 per valid claim) final approval October 2025. In 2026 a new round followed — Memorial Health Services, Southern Illinois Healthcare, Banner Health, Call-On-Doc, Duke, Emanate Health, Bayhealth, Cone Health, Penn Medicine, LiveHealth Online, Fairchild Medical Center, Wellstar, Boone Health and MDLIVE — each with its own claim window; the case list on this page shows which ones are still open.
Sources and Method
Sources: each settlement’s official website and notice, the court dockets named in each case (federal and state), and docket mirrors such as CourtListener and PacerMonitor.
New hospital cases continue to be filed in 2026. Class definitions and per-claim payouts vary by case. Some hospitals have asserted that the data transmitted wasn’t covered HIPAA PHI — courts have split on that question.
