Who Are Mt. Baker Imaging and Northwest Radiologists, and Why Are They Facing a Data Breach Lawsuit?

Northwest Radiologists is a subspecialized radiology practice based in Bellingham, Washington, that provides full-service radiology interpretations and minimally invasive interventional procedures at four PeaceHealth hospitals, and maintains outpatient imaging services at Mt. Baker Imaging facilities throughout the region in partnership with PeaceHealth. Mt. Baker Imaging has been serving the radiology needs of Whatcom County for over 50 years. This case matters to you if you were ever a patient at Mt. Baker Imaging — because the ransomware attack that hit their systems in January 2025 may have exposed your most sensitive personal and medical records.

What Happened in the Mt. Baker Imaging Ransomware Attack Between January 20 and January 25, 2025?

A ransomware attack hit Mt. Baker Imaging, LLC and Northwest Radiologists, Inc., P.S. on or about January 20, 2025, through January 25, 2025, during which cybercriminals accessed and exfiltrated confidential personally identifiable information and protected health information belonging to approximately 340,184 class members.

Plaintiffs allege that the defendants’ unlawful conduct caused damages stemming from the invasion of their privacy and the theft of their private information, and that defendants failed to implement and maintain necessary data security safeguards.

The Washington State Attorney General confirmed the breach affected 348,118 Washington residents, with compromised information including names, Social Security numbers, driver’s license or Washington ID card numbers, financial and banking information, full dates of birth, military ID numbers, health insurance policy or ID numbers, and medical information.

The defendants deny all claims and have not admitted any wrongdoing. They agreed to settle to avoid prolonged litigation. If your records were in their system at the time of the attack, this case directly affects your legal rights whether you file or not.

For a full explanation of how data breach settlements work and what steps to take to get paid, see the guide on how to claim a data breach settlement payment step by step on AllAboutLawyer.com. Because settlement payments may be taxable depending on their characterization, also check whether your Mt. Baker Imaging settlement payment is taxable before filing.

Are You Part of the Mt. Baker Imaging Data Breach Class Action?

You are part of the settlement class if you are a living person residing in the United States whose private information was potentially or actually compromised in the data security incident that occurred between January 20 and January 25, 2025.

Here is exactly how to know if this settlement covers you.

You likely qualify if:

• You received a data breach notice from Mt. Baker Imaging or Northwest Radiologists regarding the January 2025 ransomware attack
• You were a patient at any Mt. Baker Imaging location or received services interpreted by Northwest Radiologists at any point prior to January 2025
• Your personal or health records — including your name, SSN, medical records, financial data, or insurance information — were stored in their systems at the time of the attack
• You are a living U.S. resident (the settlement excludes deceased persons)

You do NOT qualify if:

• You are a director or officer of either defendant
• You are the presiding judge, their immediate family, or court staff
• Your information was not held by Mt. Baker Imaging or Northwest Radiologists at the time of the breach

Mt. Baker Imaging Patients Outside Washington — Are You Still Covered?

Yes. The settlement class covers all living persons residing in the United States whose private information was potentially or actually compromised in the data security incident — not only Washington state residents. If you received imaging services at Mt. Baker Imaging while living in another state and your records were in their system, you are still eligible to file a claim.

If you are unsure whether your information was compromised in the Mt. Baker Imaging data breach, a free consultation with a data privacy attorney can help you assess your situation before the August 19, 2026 claim deadline.

How Much Can Mt. Baker Imaging Data Breach Settlement Class Members Recover?

The settlement offers three separate benefits. You can claim any or all of them.

Mt. Baker Imaging Settlement Payout With Documented Losses — Up to $5,000

All settlement class members may submit a claim for reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket losses incurred as a direct result of the data security incident, up to $5,000.

Eligible expenses include unreimbursed losses related to fraud or identity theft, credit monitoring expenses incurred since the breach, postage, copying, scanning, faxing, mileage and travel-related charges, parking, notary and research fees, cell phone charges billed by the minute, long distance calls, data charges billed by usage, text message charges billed per message, bank fees, accountant fees, and attorneys’ fees — all expenses must be directly connected to the data security incident and cannot have been reimbursed by another party.

Supporting documentation is required for all out-of-pocket loss claims. Claims without documentation will be denied.

Mt. Baker Imaging Pro Rata Cash Payment — No Documentation Needed

All settlement class members are eligible to make a claim for a pro rata cash fund payment regardless of whether they make a claim for out-of-pocket losses. The pro rata cash fund payments will evenly distribute the net amount of the settlement fund — after payment of all approved out-of-pocket claims, monitoring costs, administration expenses, attorneys’ fees, and service awards — to each class member who submits a valid claim.

The final pro rata amount depends on how many people file valid claims. No documentation is required for this portion of the claim.

Mt. Baker Imaging Medical Identity-Theft Protection — 2 Years Free

All settlement class members may submit a claim for two years of Medical Shield Complete, a medical information protection and monitoring service offered through CyEx. This service monitors medical and healthcare data and includes single-bureau credit monitoring. Class members may claim this service regardless of whether they also claim out-of-pocket losses or pro rata payments.

Because this breach exposed medical and health insurance records, the two-year medical monitoring benefit is particularly important — medical identity theft can take much longer than financial fraud to discover and resolve.

Settlements over $600 may be reported to the IRS. Check whether your Mt. Baker Imaging settlement payment is taxable if you have questions about how to handle any payment at tax time.

How to Object to the Mt. Baker Imaging Settlement Terms Before July 20, 2026

Objecting means you remain in the class and stay eligible for payment, but you ask the court to reconsider the settlement’s terms or the attorneys’ fees requested. To object, you must mail a timely written objection to the Claims Administrator — ATTN: Objections, P.O. Box 1711, Baton Rouge, LA 70821 — postmarked by July 20, 2026, and include your full name, address, case name and number, your grounds for objection, and your signature.

What is the difference between the out-of-pocket reimbursement and the pro rata payment?

The out-of-pocket reimbursement — up to $5,000 — pays back specific, documented expenses you incurred because of the breach, such as fraud losses or credit monitoring costs. The pro rata payment is a cash share of whatever remains in the fund after those reimbursements, attorney fees, and administration costs are paid out. You are eligible to claim both, and you may also claim two years of Medical Shield Complete medical identity theft monitoring regardless of which cash benefits you select.

How much could I receive from the Mt. Baker Imaging data breach settlement?

The maximum reimbursement for documented losses is $5,000. The pro rata cash payment amount is not yet determined — it will depend on how many valid claims are filed and how much remains in the $3,300,000 fund after deductions. Class Counsel is seeking attorneys’ fees not to exceed $1,100,000, which is one-third of the settlement fund.
