What Is This Settlement About?
Oglethorpe Inc., a Tampa-based company operating a network of behavioral health facilities, agreed to a $350,000 class action settlement to resolve claims arising from a data security incident in June 2025. The breach involved unauthorized access to systems holding personal information of approximately 92,000 patients and employees. Oglethorpe denies wrongdoing and settled to avoid the cost and uncertainty of continued litigation.Because the affected organization provides behavioral health care, the exposed records are among the more sensitive categories of breach data — which is also why the settlement includes medical-identity monitoring alongside the cash benefits. The claim window is short: claims are due August 8, 2026.
