Those whose information may have been compromised in a cyberattack targeting a Kentucky-based hospital network can now seek compensation of up to $2,500 and other benefits under a proposed class action settlement.

Norton Healthcare, which operates nine hospitals and hundreds of clinics in Kentucky and Indiana, has agreed to pay $11 million to settle the federal lawsuit stemming from a May 2023 data breach. The settlement received preliminary approval in January, and a final approval hearing is scheduled for May 15, 2026, in Jefferson Circuit Court in Kentucky.
