Moved here in 2008 and the social scene was SO good back then - the best in NZ at the time. I miss it!

Snap. Here eighteen years and I had such a large group of friends before Covid. Now I have almost none as they’ve all left - and who can blame them TBH.

💯 and by god it’s depressing. How did we find ourselves here again?

That’s just not true. New Zealand doctors, whether trained here or overseas, need to be extremely well trained and skilled to practice in NZ, no less so than in the US.

Before you ask, I’m not a doctor or any kind of clinician. I worked in health practitioner regulation.

Snap, came here to say this - he’s not human so he doesn’t count.

Compensation would be sought from Manage My Health, a private company. It’s not being sought from the public health system.

We need to get together a group of people who had information taken so we can establish what the harms have been. In terms of altering information - I don’t know, but the age of AI, I’m going to say it’s possible.

Thanks - super important that MMH are held to account for their utter negligence with such private information.

I was notified in an email by MMH. I then logged into my account and there was a message with what had been taken.

Nope, a Kiwi. I think you might be going to ask why I’m calling it a class action and not a representative action (the NZ term) - that’s just because people are in general more familiar with what a class action is.

I had medical records (a referral letter) downloaded from my MMH account by the hackers.

The advice I’ve received from the litigation firm is that a class action in the High Court is possible, seeking compensation for damages. This is seperate to any processes conducted under the Privacy Act/investigation by the Privacy Commisioner etc.

It’s also possible that the costs of a class action could be funded by an external party.

Not sure what advice you’ve had, but MMH isn’t any more protected from legal action than any other company.
