What happened
The lawsuit alleges AdaptHealth billed North Carolina consumers for medical equipment they did not receive, rejected, or returned, and sent collection letters suggesting possible legal action. AdaptHealth denies all wrongdoing and liability and says its conduct complied with applicable law. The parties settled to avoid the risks, costs, and delays of further litigation.
Do you qualify?
Settlement Class A includes 464 identified individuals who purchased, leased, or rented equipment from AdaptHealth, allegedly returned, rejected, or did not receive it, were billed for dates of service between April 3, 2019 and April 3, 2025, and lived in North Carolina when billed. Settlement Class C includes 142,539 identified individuals who purchased, leased, or rented equipment, were sent a 'Seriously Past Due' or 'Final Demand' letter, had dates of service between April 3, 2019 and March 31, 2026, and lived in North Carolina when the letter was sent. A third class, Late Fee Class, is a subset of Class A and receives no separate financial relief.
What the settlement pays
Class A members who submit valid claims will receive $3,500.00 per person. Class C members who received a Notice by mail or email automatically receive $47.00 per person; those who did not receive a Notice must submit a valid Claim Form to receive $47.00. Additional pro rata distributions may be made if funds remain.
Paid from a $14.3M settlement fund. Individual amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed.
How to file
Class C members who received a Notice by mail or email will automatically receive payment and do not need to file a claim. Class A members and Class C members who did not receive a Notice must submit a valid Claim Form by December 8, 2026. The Claim Form is available on the settlement website.
