How much can I get from the Triage Staffing settlement?

Class members can claim reimbursement of up to $500 for documented ordinary losses and up to $2,500 for documented extraordinary losses tied to identity theft or fraud, both incurred between May 2025 and August 10, 2026 — up to $3,000 combined. Class members who do not claim losses can instead choose a $50 alternative cash payment. All claimants can also enroll in two years of CyEx Identity Defense Total, which includes three-bureau credit monitoring and identity protection insurance.

Do I need proof to file a Triage Staffing settlement claim?

Yes. The online claim form requires the unique ID and PIN printed on the settlement notice sent to class members, so a valid notice is needed even for the $50 alternative cash payment, which otherwise requires no documentation. Receipts or other records are required for the ordinary-loss and extraordinary-loss reimbursement tiers.

What is the deadline to file a Triage Staffing claim?

Claim forms must be submitted online, emailed, or postmarked by August 10, 2026. The final approval hearing is scheduled for August 18, 2026.

What Is This Settlement About?

Triage LLC, doing business as Triage Staffing — an Omaha, Nebraska-based healthcare staffing agency that places travel nurses and other medical professionals at facilities nationwide — has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit over a May 2025 data security incident. According to the settlement website, an unauthorized third party gained access to Triage's computer systems and potentially accessed certain files containing personal information, including first, middle, and last names, addresses, dates of birth, and Social Security numbers.

The lawsuit, Anderson, et al. v. Triage LLC d/b/a Triage Staffing, alleges Triage failed to adequately safeguard the personal information in its systems. Triage denies any wrongdoing, but the parties agreed to settle to avoid the costs, risks, and uncertainty of continued litigation. The settlement received preliminary approval on April 10, 2026, and a final approval hearing is scheduled for August 18, 2026. Because Triage is a staffing agency, the class consists largely of current and former employees, contractors, and healthcare professionals who worked with Triage — not the agency's customers.

Who Qualifies?

The Settlement Class includes United States residents whose personal information was potentially compromised in the May 2025 Triage Staffing data breach and who were sent notice of the incident. If you received a breach notification letter from Triage in 2025, or a settlement notice by mail or email, you are likely a Settlement Class Member.

Many class members are travel nurses and allied health professionals who applied to, worked for, or contracted with Triage Staffing. If you are unsure whether you are included, check the eligibility details on the official settlement website.

How Much Can You Get?

Settlement Class Members who submit a valid claim form by the deadline can choose between two benefit paths:

• Ordinary Losses — up to $500 per person for documented, unreimbursed losses incurred between May 2025 and August 10, 2026 as a result of the data breach, such as bank fees, communication charges, credit-related costs, and up to several hours of lost time.

• Extraordinary Losses — up to an additional $2,500 per person for documented, unreimbursed losses from actual identity theft or fraud fairly traceable to the breach, incurred between May 2025 and August 10, 2026. Combined with ordinary losses, reimbursement can reach $3,000.

• Alternative Cash Payment — class members who do not claim ordinary or extraordinary losses can instead elect a one-time $50 cash payment, with no receipts or documentation required (you still need the ID and PIN from your notice to file).

• Credit Monitoring — in addition to either benefit path, all class members can enroll in two years of CyEx Identity Defense Total, which includes three-bureau credit monitoring and identity protection insurance.

How Do You File a Claim?

The quickest way to file is online through the official settlement website, triagedatasettlement.com. The online claim portal requires the unique ID and PIN printed on the settlement notice sent to class members, so have your notice handy. You can also download a claim form from the settlement website and submit it by email or mail. If you cannot locate your ID and PIN, use the contact options on the official settlement website to request assistance.

All claim forms must be submitted online, emailed, or postmarked by August 10, 2026. The claims administrator may follow up for additional information to validate a claim — respond promptly so your claim is not rejected.

Important Dates

• Claim Form Deadline: August 10, 2026 (submitted online, emailed, or postmarked)
• Final Approval Hearing: August 18, 2026

Opt-out and objection deadlines are listed in the settlement notice and on the official settlement website. If you do nothing, you will receive no payment or monitoring and will give up the right to sue Triage over the breach if the settlement is approved.

When Will Payments Be Made?

Payments will only go out if the court grants final approval at the August 18, 2026 hearing and after any appeals are resolved and all claims are processed. That typically takes several months or longer after the hearing. Attorneys' fees, costs, administration expenses, and any court-approved service awards are paid before class member payments are calculated.
