Who Is Fairchild Medical Center and Why Are They Being Sued for This?

Fairchild Medical Center, operated by Siskiyou Hospital, Inc. in Yreka, California, runs a patient-facing website where people look up services, providers, and health information. The lawsuit says the hospital had the Meta Pixel and related tracking code embedded on its site, which allegedly sent visitors’ private information to third parties without their permission — a common allegation now seen across dozens of hospital pixel-tracking cases nationwide.

What Did Fairchild Medical Center Do to Patients Who Used Its Website?

The case, Delgado v. Siskiyou Hospital, Inc. d/b/a Fairchild Medical Center, filed by class representative Lori Delgado, claims the hospital’s use of tracking pixels violated privacy laws by disclosing patients’ private information without authorization. Fairchild Medical Center denies doing anything wrong, and the court hasn’t decided who’s right — the parties settled to avoid the cost and uncertainty of a trial.

What sets this case apart from most pixel-tracking settlements is its size: the class is roughly 1,000 people, all California residents specifically identified through Fairchild’s own records as having had their information disclosed. This isn’t a broad “anyone who ever visited the website” class — it’s a defined, notified group, which is why enrollment codes for the identity-protection benefit were mailed out on postcards rather than requiring anyone to self-identify.

Who Qualifies for the Fairchild Medical Center Settlement?

Here’s exactly how to know if this case includes you.

• California residents whose private information Fairchild Medical Center disclosed to third parties through the Meta Pixel or related tracking technologies
• The class is defined as approximately 1,000 specific individuals identified through the hospital’s own records

Who does NOT qualify: Fairchild Medical Center’s officers, directors, and related companies; the presiding judge and their family and staff; attorneys for either side; and anyone who validly opts out.

Fairchild Medical Center Patients Outside California — Are You Still Covered?

No. This settlement class is limited to California residents whose information was specifically identified as disclosed. If you’re outside California or didn’t receive a notice, you’re not part of this particular class, though similar tracking-pixel litigation against other healthcare providers may apply to your situation.

Not sure if you qualify for the Fairchild Medical Center settlement? A free consultation with a data privacy attorney can help, though your fastest path to an answer is calling the settlement administrator directly at (833) 421-7353 — since this class is a fixed, identified list, they can confirm your status quickly.

How Much Can Fairchild Medical Center Settlement Class Members Get? Up to $25 Cash Plus a Year of Identity Protection

Fairchild Medical Center Payout — $25, No Proof Needed

Every class member can claim a one-time $25 cash payment with no documentation or explanation required.

Fairchild Medical Center Identity Protection — One Year of CyEx Privacy Shield Pro

Separately from the cash payment, all class members can enroll in a year of CyEx Privacy Shield Pro, which includes dark web scanning, compromised password scanning, a VPN, a password manager, and access to a fraud resolution agent if something goes wrong. Enrollment codes were mailed to class members by postcard — contact the administrator if you lost yours.

What Pro-Rata Means for Your Fairchild Medical Center Check

It doesn’t apply here. The notice describes the $25 payment as a fixed amount per valid claim, not a share of a capped pool that shrinks as more people file. Payments over $600 may appear on a 1099, though a $25 payment is unlikely to trigger that on its own. Attorneys’ fees of $100,000 and a $2,500 service award to the class representative are paid directly by Fairchild Medical Center — they don’t come out of what you’d otherwise receive.

Should Fairchild Medical Center Class Members Opt Out or Object Before September 28, 2026?

How to Object to the Fairchild Medical Center Settlement

Objecting means you stay in the class and can still file a claim, but tell the court you disagree with part of the deal — the attorneys’ fee request, for example.
