The complaint, filed by a California patient known as John Doe, claims that the health system’s website and patient portal contained code that granted companies—including Google, Bing, Twitter, Adobe, and Quantum Metric—access to personal information.

The complaint asks for damages and injunctive and declaratory relief. Kaiser Permanente is the health system awaiting approval of an acquisition of Pennsylvania’s Geisinger Health System.
