SERVICES

Forensic Medical Examinations

 

A Forensic Medical Examination (FME) occurs when a forensic medical expert, who has not previously been involved in a patient's care, examines the patient.  A FME is requested when there are questions surrounding causation,  impairment, and/or the appropriateness of care.

 

A FME consists of a comprehensive review of the file provided, a physical examination, and generation of a written report or a verbal opinion to discuss findings. As a free ancillary service, NWME will coordinate phone conferences, addendums and subsequent deposition or court testimony when necessary.

 

NWME has extensive experience in paneling up to 4 experts for multi-specialty examinations.

Forensic Records Reviews

 

A Forensic Record Review (RR) is utilized to assist in evaluating cases without having a physical examination. The focus of a RR is to assess causation, impairment, and/or the appropriateness of care. Dependent on the facts of the case, RR's can be a valuable cost saving service in lieu of scheduling an independent medical examination.

Northwest Medical Experts will facilitate the RR with the appropriate forensic medical expert based on the client's directive. A RR consists of a comprehensive review of the file provided, and generation of a written report or verbal opinion to discuss findings before the report is generated. As a free ancillary service, NWME will coordinate phone conferences, addendums and subsequent deposition or court testimony when necessary.

Medical Chronologies

 

When you want to confidently know the important information contained in the medical records without having to personally decipher each and every document, our fact based narrative summaries are right on target.

Capture the who, what, when, where of clinical data from each relevant medical encounter, presented in Chronological or Reverse Chronological order.

Efficiently navigate through the Hyperlinked source documents to effectively evaluate even the largest most complex medical record…saving the firm time and money.

Medical Bill Reviews
 
NWME can provide targeted Medical Bill Reviews to help identify and document excessive or fraudulent provider billing. Our qualified reviewers use their experience and widely accepted resources in analyzing specific billing statements to evaluate the cost of treatment rendered.
