Medical Records Review & Expert Medical Analysis
Clear, Objective Review for Early Case Evaluation and Claims Clarification
Many cases require expert clarification long before an Independent Medical Evaluation or testimony becomes necessary. Our Medical Records Review service provides an efficient way to obtain a clear, well-supported medical opinion early in the process. These reviews help attorneys, insurers, adjusters, and case managers understand the medical landscape of a claim, identify key issues, and determine appropriate next steps.
Records reviews are completed by Dr. Galpern, a board-certified hand and upper extremity surgeon, who offers focused insight into conditions involving the hand, wrist, forearm, and arm.
What Our Records Review Include
Each review is tailored to the needs of the case and may include:
- Comprehensive evaluation of medical records, imaging, diagnostic studies, and therapy documentation
- Clarification of diagnosis, causation, and treatment appropriateness
- Assessment of clinical progress and expected prognosis
- Identification of inconsistencies or red flags within the medical timeline
- Evaluation of whether additional treatment or evaluation may be warranted
- A clear written summary that presents medical information in an understandable, practical format upon request.
When to Request a Records Review
A medical records review is especially valuable when:
- You need early insight into a claim before deciding on an IME
- A case presents conflicting or unclear medical information
- A causation opinion is needed before proceeding further
- You prefer an expert’s perspective without scheduling an in-person evaluation
- The case may not require testimony or a formal IME
- You need guidance on next best steps, potential future care, or concerns within the medical file
This service helps streamline case strategy and supports informed decision-making at any stage of the claim.
Clear and Understandable Reporting
The written opinion is organized and easy to follow, providing straightforward explanations or relevant medical issues. The goal is to help legal and insurance professionals make confident, well-informed decisions based on accurate clinical insights.
