What happened
According to the notice filed with the California Attorney General, MedImpact Healthcare Systems, Inc., a pharmacy benefits manager that provides services to the Leggett & Platt, Incorporated Employee Benefits Plan, identified unauthorized activity within certain of its systems on October 18, 2025. MedImpact reports that it secured the affected systems and engaged external cybersecurity experts to investigate.
The investigation determined that information relating to plan members was among the data potentially accessed. The notice was published by the California Attorney General on September 15, 2026, roughly 11 months after the activity was first detected. The notice states that the information involved varied by individual and included first and last names along with additional data elements that are not specified in the public version of the letter. No complimentary credit monitoring was offered.
Because MedImpact manages prescription benefits, the data it holds can include sensitive pharmacy and health plan information. Exposure of this type of information may raise concerns under HIPAA and state medical privacy and data breach laws. Dapeer Law is evaluating whether affected plan members may have claims, including claims related to the length of time between discovery and notice.
What to do if you received a letter
Keep your notice letter
Do not discard it. Your letter lists the specific categories of your information involved, which the public version of the notice does not, and it is important evidence if you decide to participate in a lawsuit.
Protect your credit and health plan accounts
MedImpact did not offer free credit monitoring. Review the Additional Resources enclosure in your letter, check your credit reports, and consider a no-cost fraud alert or security freeze with the three nationwide credit bureaus. Taking these steps does not waive your right to pursue legal action.
Place a fraud alert or credit freeze
Contact Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion to place a fraud alert or freeze on your file. Request a free weekly credit report from AnnualCreditReport.com, and use the FTC's IdentityTheft.gov recovery guide. Also review your Explanation of Benefits statements and pharmacy records for prescriptions or claims you do not recognize.
