Obtaining Medical Records: A Necessary Evil

Description:

Medical records are a necessary evil for many tort litigators. Obtaining records, and even the process of requesting records can be time consuming, expensive and often lead to duplicative or missing records. Get a crash course on tips for effectively requesting records (including the who and the where) and how to follow up when those records do not come in. Also, learn the basics of the various portals available for receiving electronic records and the benefits of utilizing those portals.

Absolutely fantastic presentation !!!

Knowledgeable presenters.

In my practice I do not often need to request medical records but when I do I usually find it to be difficult and time-consuming so the insights provided in this seminar were most welcome.

Third party portals exist for records requests; response deadlines for production of records in med mal cases is different than workers comp cases in TN; and sometimes it is best to hit records custodians with personal service if they are no responsive to your written requests for records.

Good presentation. Need more examples of problems people have while getting these records.
