You may be part of a new $8,250,000 class action settlement involving Natera over allegations tied to out-of-pocket payments for Natera noninvasive prenatal screening tests (NIPT), including Panorama or Vistara.
This settlement is in the case titled In re Natera Prenatal Testing Litigation, Case No. 4:22-cv-00985, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.
The settlement does not mean Natera did anything wrong. The parties agreed to resolve the case to avoid the cost and risk of continued litigation.
What is the Total Settlement Amount?
If the settlement is approved, Natera will create an $8,250,000 Settlement Fund. After court-approved deductions (such as settlement administration costs and attorneys’ fees and costs, if approved), the remaining amount (the Net Settlement Fund) will be paid to class members who submit valid claims.
How Do I Qualify For a Payout?
You may qualify if you are an individual in the United States who paid out of pocket for a Natera NIPT test (Panorama or Vistara) during the applicable class period for your state.
You paid out of pocket if you paid any portion of the price, including a copay, coinsurance, or deductible.
If your Natera NIPT was paid for entirely by insurance or another third-party source, you are not included.
The class period depends on your state:
• Ohio: February 17, 2016 to August 7, 2025
• New Jersey: May 5, 2016 to August 7, 2025
• Florida: February 24, 2017 to August 7, 2025
• New York and Illinois: April 27, 2017 to August 7, 2025
• All other states: February 17, 2018 to August 7, 2025
How Much Can I Get Paid?
Payments are based on the claim type you select and how many valid claims are submitted.
• Without proof of purchase: up to $30 maximum
• With proof of purchase in excess of $300: 10% of the out-of-pocket purchase amount
Your payment may increase or decrease depending on the total claims submitted and the total net amount available, but claims without proof will not exceed $30, and claims with proof will not exceed your out-of-pocket costs.
