Healthcare & Wellness ADA lawsuits, in plain English

Are healthcare & wellness businesses common targets for ADA website lawsuits?
Yes. Medical practices, clinics, pharmacies, dental offices, wellness, fitness, yoga, and spa businesses. We track 13 federal filings against healthcare & wellness defendants in our dataset.
Why do plaintiff firms target healthcare & wellness sites?
Healthcare practice sites combine patient portals, appointment scheduling, and content about conditions. Inaccessible scheduling forms or PDF intake documents are especially exposed because they map to actual care access.
What WCAG criteria are most often cited in healthcare & wellness lawsuits?
The same five criteria show up in about 80% of all ADA website complaints regardless of industry: 1.1.1 (alt text), 1.4.3 (contrast), 2.1.1 (keyboard), 2.4.4 (link purpose), and 4.1.2 (name, role, value). Healthcare & Wellness sites typically add industry-specific issues: forms, menus, product filters, booking flows, or scheduling.
How do I check if my own site is at risk?
Run the same axe-core scan plaintiff firms use. It's free, takes about 60 seconds, and shows roughly what a serial filer's automated tool would find on your site.

Is your healthcare & wellness site exposed?

Free scan, no signup, results in 60 seconds. Same axe-core engine the demand-letter machines use.
