Apria has faced major legal scrutiny and class-action lawsuits primarily due to massive data security incidents and historic data breaches that compromised sensitive personal, medical, and financial records belonging to millions of patients and employees. Plaintiffs and regulatory bodies alleged that the home healthcare and medical equipment provider failed to implement reasonable cybersecurity safeguards and delayed notifying affected consumers. Additionally, the company previously faced federal whistleblower and healthcare fraud lawsuits alleging improper billing practices for medical equipment rentals submitted to federal programs like Medicare and Medicaid.
