As part of the proposed settlement, $15 million would be setaside to pay for out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of thedata breach.

The proposal filed Friday would require Anthem to establish afund to buy at least two years of credit monitoring services forthe class to help protect them from fraud.

$50 per person

For individual class members who already have their owncredit-monitoring services and don't want to enroll in thesettlement's plan, the settlement provides alternative compensationof as much as $50 per class member.

The plan also requires Anthem to spend an undisclosed amount tohelp protect members' personal information over the next threeyears.

In 2015, after the breach was made public, Anthem established awebsite, anthemfacts.com,where people affected by the breach could sign up for two years ofcredit monitoring.
