Vitruvian Health Data Breach Lawsuit

Vitruvian Health Data Breach Details

The breach, which occurred last year, was linked to a third-party collection agency, Nationwide Recovery Service (NRS), and has led to the unauthorized access and theft of sensitive data.

The incident was first detected by NRS on July 11, 2024, when the company identified a cybersecurity breach affecting its systems. The unauthorized individual accessed NRS systems between July 5 and July 11, 2024, and removed data from the compromised systems. However, Vitruvian Health has assured the public that no systems maintained by the healthcare provider were impacted by the breach. The breach was limited to NRS’s systems, which handle collections on behalf of multiple clients, including Vitruvian Health.

Compromised Information

The exposed data included a variety of personal information such as:

Names

Addresses

Social Security numbers

Dates of birth

Financial account details

Medical information

Although Vitruvian Health has not received reports of identity theft or misuse of the data at this time, they are urging affected individuals to stay vigilant and take steps to protect themselves.

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you were affected, you should have received a direct notification from Vitruvian Health, such as a letter or email. While most victims are officially notified through a “Notice of Data Breach” in the mail, the consequences—such as fraudulent transactions and identity theft—can begin before the official notice arrives.

What to Do if You Were Affected by the Vitruvian Health Data Breach

If you believe your personal information was compromised in the Vitruvian Health data breach, it’s important to act quickly to protect yourself. Start by reviewing any notifications from Vitruvian Health, carefully monitor your financial accounts, and take proactive steps to minimize the risk of identity theft or fraud.

Although the breach was discovered several months ago, taking action now can significantly reduce the risk of misuse of your personal data. Follow these key steps to safeguard your information and find peace of mind.

Beware of Phishing Scams

Scammers may try to take advantage of the data breach by pretending to be Vitruvian Health. Be cautious of unsolicited emails, texts, or phone calls asking for personal information. Always verify any suspicious communication directly with US Claims using official contact details.

Monitor Your Credit and Financial Accounts

Regularly check your bank and credit card statements for any unfamiliar transactions. It’s also important to review your credit reports for potential errors or fraudulent accounts. You’re entitled to free annual credit reports, so take advantage of this to stay on top of your financial health. Setting up alerts on your accounts can help you spot suspicious activity more quickly.

Consider Freezing Your Credit

For added protection, consider placing a credit freeze on your files with all three major credit bureaus. This will prevent anyone from opening new accounts in your name, while still allowing you to use existing credit. A credit freeze can be temporarily lifted when you need to apply for credit, giving you full control over your information.
