What Happened?
According to a Texas Attorney General filing, this matter was publicly listed in connection with a reported data security incident. The public landing page was available, but the detailed notice text and record-specific narrative were not visible in the materials reviewed.
Because of that limitation, important details remain unknown, including when the incident occurred, when it was discovered, and when affected people were notified. If you received a letter or email about this matter, review it carefully because it may provide the most reliable information about timing, the systems involved, and any assistance that may have been offered.
What Information Was Exposed?
The filing information reviewed for this post indicates that sensitive personal data may have been involved, including a person’s name, Social Security number, and health records. When those categories are implicated, the risks can include identity theft, tax fraud, new-account fraud, and misuse of medical or insurance information.
Health-related information can create additional concerns beyond ordinary financial fraud. Affected individuals may want to watch for unfamiliar medical bills, insurance claims, explanation-of-benefits statements, or provider notices, especially if they do not match care you actually received.
What Should You Do Next?
- Read any notice you received from the company. Check what information the notice says may have been involved, when the event was discovered, and whether any support services were offered.
- Monitor your financial and medical accounts. Review bank and credit card statements, insurance activity, explanation-of-benefits forms, and provider bills for anything unfamiliar.
- Consider a fraud alert or credit freeze. If a Social Security number may have been involved, adding a fraud alert or freezing your credit can help reduce the risk of new-account fraud.
- Request and review your credit reports. Look for new accounts, address changes, or inquiries you do not recognize.
- Keep records of your response. Save letters, emails, screenshots, account statements, and notes about the time you spend dealing with the issue.
- Ask about your legal options. If you believe your information may have been involved, you can fill out the form on this page to contact Strauss Borrelli PLLC and learn whether you may qualify for a claim.

If your personal information was affected, you may have legal rights depending on the facts of the incident and the laws that apply. In data incident cases, those issues can include whether reasonable security measures were used, whether notice was provided in a timely manner, and whether consumers suffered financial harm, lost time, or ongoing risk.
