If you used a Philips Respironics CPAP, BiPAP or Ventilator that was recalled, you will receive Medical Advancement Program Benefits from a proposed class action settlement of Medical Monitoring Claims if the settlement is approved.[/size]

  • If the proposed Settlement is approved, you will release certain claims (described below in FAQ #4). However, you will not be releasing any individual claims you may have for payment of your medical monitoring expenses, whether incurred in the past or in the future, related to your use of a Recalled Device (e.g., out-of-pocket costs you incur for necessary and prescribed testing to monitor for potential illnesses you do not yet have). The Settlement also does not release any claims for personal injuries relating to the Recalled Devices.
  • This Settlement is separate from the settlement and release of Economic Loss Claims relating to the Recalled Devices. The Court granted final approval of the Economic Loss Settlement on April 25, 2024.
  • The proposed Settlement has been reached in a federal class action lawsuit that seeks to resolve Medical Monitoring Claims relating to certain CPAPs, BiPAPs, and ventilators that were recalled by Philips Respironics beginning in June 2021 (the "Recalled Devices"). These devices were sold in the U.S. between 2008 and 2021. The benefits of the Settlement are summarized in the Q&A section below.
  • You are included in the proposed Settlement if you are a U.S. citizen or resident (including its Territories and the District of Columbia) who has used a Recalled Device.
  • Your legal rights are affected by the proposed Settlement even if you do nothing.
  • Your rights and the deadline to exercise them are summarized in this notice. Please read this entire notice carefully. More details concerning the full Settlement Agreement, and other relevant documents, are available at www.RespironicsMedicalAdvancementProgram.com.
  • Please note that this is a non-opt out Settlement, meaning you do not have the right to opt out or request exclusion from the Settlement Class. But you do have the right to object to the Settlement or the request for attorneys' fees, costs, and service awards, if you wish.
  • Capitalized terms in this Notice have the same meaning as defined in the Settlement Agreement.

This is really good information. I think we should copy this to the Philips Recall thread. https://www.apneaboard.com/forums/Thread...-ONE-USERS
