If you are a victim of a data protection failure involving your medical data, check out our current group actions to see if we are running a claim related to that specific breach.
As patients, we expect our confidential medical data to be taken care of. But the UK health sector accounts for nearly half of all data breaches. And, as our health and social care system becomes increasingly digital, there are concerns that the robust protections required are simply not in place.
Our healthcare sector does a fantastic job, often under incredibly challenging circumstances. But data privacy is often being treated as an afterthought.
Your health and medical records are some of the most personal and sensitive data out there. Which is why a medical data breach can be so devastating.
No one wants to sue the NHS, but sometimes making a claim is the only way to force improvements in patient security. It is also worth mentioning that the NHS is insured against compensation claims

While each case is judged on its own merits, there are some things we would typically look for when it comes to when claiming compensation following a data breach, cybercrime or other GDPR violation:
With stolen data, cybercriminals can make purchases using your bank and credit cards, apply for credit in your name, set up fraudulent bank accounts and access your existing online accounts.
GDPR failures, cybercrime and data breaches can have a significant impact on you, both mentally and physically. They can cause or exacerbate anxiety, stress and other psychological conditions.
