Our Approach

Each year, we work on thousands of projects and handle millions of pages of clinical and legal documents. This experience has helped us standardize our approach to medical record review, simplifying the entire process. Getting started is as straightforward as a phone call.

Unique litigation or regulatory challenges may require a bit more communication to ensure we clarify requirements, identify specific challenges, and understand your desired outcomes. Once we decide together on a course of action and agree on scope through a statement of work, a dedicated liaison manages the project to ensure all deliverables are completed on time and within budget.

Thank you for your help with our claim. The reports we received are very detailed and precisely what we needed. It would have taken us a significant amount of time to address opposing counsel’s assertions, but your team was able to promptly review the records and provide a detailed report in the time frame we requested.
