A class-action complaint regarding the Banner Health data breach was filed this week by Faraci Lange attorneys Hadley L. Matarazzo and Kathryn Lee Bruns, along with local counsel Paul L. Stoller and Lincoln Combs of Gallagher & Kennedy.
Filed on August 23rd, 2016, the class action complaint brought against Banner Health and Banner-University Medical Group claims the organization's "failure to adequately protect the confidential, private personal and health information of patients, members, customers, and healthcare providers."
Due to the cited negligence, the plaintiffs and other class action members have suffered great harm as well as the impending risk of future harm. The information exposed in this data breach allows anyone with access the ability to steal someone's identity.
