Questions about this case?
AI Legal Assistant · free · answers in seconds · general information, not legal advice
There was a real Orlando Health lawsuit over website tracking. A patient sued in June 2024, alleging the health system’s website passed her medical searches to Meta and Google. A federal judge let most of it go forward in March 2025 — and on February 13, 2026 the case was dismissed by agreement. As of October 6, 2026 there is no Orlando Health settlement, no fund and no claim form.

What the Orlando Health Lawsuit Alleged
The plaintiff, identified only as W.W., said she searched the Orlando Health website for conditions including fatty liver disease, heart problems and ileostomy — and then saw Facebook ads for ileostomy bags, heart-failure treatment and Orlando Health neurologists.
The lawsuit alleged that tracking code such as Meta’s Pixel and Google’s analytics tools copied what patients did on the public website and patient portal and sent it to those companies: the URL visited, the conditions searched and the types of doctors searched. Orlando Health argued it only tracked metadata, not the content of any communication.
The claims were brought under the Florida Security of Communications Act, a state wiretap law, and the federal Wiretap Act, plus breach of confidence, breach of implied contract and unjust enrichment. These were allegations; no court ever found Orlando Health liable.
Case Details
W.W. v. Orlando Health, Inc., No. 6:24-cv-1068-JSS-RMN, U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, before Judge Julie S. Sneed. It was filed in June 2024 as a proposed class action.
On March 6, 2025 Judge Sneed denied most of Orlando Health’s motion to dismiss. The wiretap, breach-of-confidence, implied-contract and unjust-enrichment claims survived; the intrusion-upon-seclusion claim was dismissed. The ruling drew attention because Florida courts had mostly rejected website-tracking claims under the roughly 50-year-old state statute.
On February 13, 2026 the plaintiff and Orlando Health filed a joint stipulation of dismissal, and the judge entered an order of dismissal the same day.
Status: Dismissed by Agreement, No Settlement
The public reports do not say whether the dismissal included any private payment to the named plaintiff, and we could not see the docket to check whether it was with or without prejudice. What matters for other patients: a proposed class that was never certified does not pay anyone else.
We found no new Orlando Health data breach case in 2025 or 2026 either.
Are You Affected? What Patients Can Check
Orlando Health’s patient portal is Orlando Health MyChart. The court noted that the health system runs over 100 medical facilities and steers patients from its website to the MyChart portal and appointment booking.
Because the Orlando Health MyChart lawsuit ended without a class settlement, there is no class to be in and nothing to file. If a new case is ever filed, the questions that matter are the ones our form on this page asks: did you use the public website or MyChart, what did you do there (search a condition, look for a doctor, book an appointment, read results), and when did you last use it.
Separate from tracking, check your mail for any breach letter naming Orlando Health or one of its vendors. The letter says which data was involved and is your proof if a settlement ever follows.
Is There Money? What Other Hospitals Paid
Other hospital systems did settle tracking cases, which is why people search for an Orlando Health one. Wellstar agreed to a $4.25 million MyChart pixel settlement for about 870,000 people, with claims closing November 10, 2026 (details). MemorialCare settled for $750,000 covering 182,303 people. Those amounts belong to those patients only. The open forms are listed on our MyChart claim form page, and the MyChart settlement calculator shows realistic per-person amounts.
One vendor breach case did settle: the ESO Solutions settlement ($757,500 fund, In re ESO Solutions, Inc. Breach Litigation, No. 1:23-cv-01557-RP, W.D. Tex.) was limited to people living in Texas, and its claim deadline was March 12, 2026.

Three Things to Watch For
Orlando Health patients see real MyChart settlements in the news for other hospitals. That gap gets exploited:
“Claim your Orlando Health MyChart payment”
No Orlando Health tracking settlement exists. A text or site asking for your MyChart login, date of birth or bank details to “release” a payment is phishing.
Fake MyChart login links
Messages that look like portal alerts but link to a lookalike page are the easiest way to steal a MyChart password. Open the portal only by typing orlandohealth.com/mychart yourself.
Another hospital’s settlement passed off as yours
Wellstar and other systems have real claim forms, but only their own patients qualify. Filing as an Orlando Health patient under penalty of perjury can get the claim rejected — or worse.
Orlando Health Lawsuit — Questions People Actually Ask
Is there an Orlando Health MyChart lawsuit?
There was one: W.W. v. Orlando Health, Inc., No. 6:24-cv-1068, in the Middle District of Florida, over Meta and Google tracking on the website and patient portal. It was dismissed by agreement on February 13, 2026. As of October 6, 2026 there is no active tracking case that we could find.
Did Orlando Health settle?
Not with patients as a class. No class settlement, fund or claim form was announced. Whether the named plaintiff received anything privately is not public in the reports we could read.
Did a court find that Orlando Health shared my data?
No. The March 6, 2025 ruling only decided that the allegations were detailed enough to proceed. No liability finding was ever made, and Orlando Health argued it tracked only metadata.
What is the Orlando Health patient portal called?
Orlando Health MyChart. It runs on Epic’s MyChart software, but Epic was not a defendant — tracking cases target the hospital that ran the website.
Was there an Orlando Health data breach?
Several smaller incidents have been reported: an employee viewed up to 3,200 records (discovered May 27, 2015), a lost flash drive held records of 586 children, and vendor incidents at ESO Solutions and Nuance hit Orlando Health patients in 2023. We found no Orlando Health data breach lawsuit with an open claim deadline.
Can I still get money from the ESO Solutions settlement?
Very likely not. That settlement covered only people who lived in Texas when ESO mailed its notice, and the claim deadline was March 12, 2026.
Can I join a different hospital’s MyChart settlement?
Only if you were that hospital’s patient in its class period. Each settlement covers one health system’s website users. See the open MyChart claim forms.
What should I do now?
Nothing needs filing. Keep any breach letter that names Orlando Health or a vendor, check insurer statements for care you never received, and tell us on this page whether you used the website or MyChart and when — we update this page if a new case appears.
Separate from this case: were you injured in the last 2 years?
Class-action payouts are fixed amounts through an administrator. A personal injury claim is a different case — and often worth far more. Free estimate, no obligation.
