How to claim the Planned Parenthood lab settlement (Up to $5,000) before Nov 24, 2026

Laboratory Services Cooperative, a lab that processes tests ordered by Planned Parenthood health centers, agreed to a $6.1 million settlement over a data incident discovered around October 27, 2024 that may have exposed personal information of patients and employees. LSC denies wrongdoing.

The case is In re Laboratory Services Cooperative Data Breach Litigation (No. 2:25-cv-00685-BJR) in the U.S. District Court, Western District of Washington.

A court-appointed administrator runs the claim process and sends the payments. SettleClub is not affiliated with the administrator or with Planned Parenthood lab.

U.S. residents whose personal information was potentially compromised in the incident. That includes people who received or paid for lab tests ordered by a Planned Parenthood health center on or before October 27, 2024, and current and former LSC employees.

The class period is Data incident discovered Oct 27, 2024. If your purchase, account or visit falls outside those dates, you are not part of this settlement even if everything else fits.

The notice lists up to $1,000 cash; up to $5,000 documented losses per person from a fund of $6,100,000.

The settlement fund is split among everyone who files a valid claim, after attorneys' fees, administration costs and any service awards approved by the court, so the final amount depends on how many people file.

The cash fund payment needs no documents: the net fund is divided evenly among valid claimants, up to $1,000 each. Reimbursement of out-of-pocket losses up to $5,000 needs receipts or other third-party documentation. Everyone can also claim two years of credit and medical identity monitoring with $1 million in identity theft protection.

You sign the claim form under penalty of perjury, so only file if you genuinely fit the class definition above. That is the whole requirement.
