How LezDo TechMed Streamlined the Workflow of a Neurosurgery IME Firm and Boosted Client Acquisition

As the caseload of the firm grew, so did the challenges of managing large volumes of medical records efficiently. Their internal team was struggling to keep up, leading to delays in expert report preparation and potential risks in client acquisition.

When we met the IME firm, they were looking to improve efficiency in medical record review and optimize expert report preparation. Their goal was to handle more cases without overburdening their internal team, allowing their medical experts to focus on high-value analysis rather than administrative tasks.

However, several key challenges were holding them back:

Time-Consuming Record Review

Each case involved thousands of pages of medical records that needed to be carefully reviewed and analyzed before an expert opinion could be formed. Their internal team was spending excessive time manually sorting through these records, leading to delays in case processing.

Disorganized and Unstructured Records

The records they received were often unindexed and jumbled, making it difficult to locate key medical events quickly. The lack of organization forced their experts to spend hours sifting through files just to find relevant information.

Difficulty in Establishing a Clear Medical Chronology

Without a structured medical chronology, it was challenging to assess injury progression, treatment history, and causation. This made it harder for their medical experts to formulate well-supported opinions, leading to inefficiencies in report preparation.

Lengthy Deposition Summaries

The firm also needed to analyze long, complex depositions related to the cases they were handling. Extracting key medical insights from these depositions was proving to be a time-intensive process, slowing down the overall workflow.

Managing Supplemental Medical Records

In many cases, new medical records were submitted after the initial review. These needed to be integrated into existing summaries without disrupting the analysis flow. Manually updating documents and ensuring continuity in reporting was proving to be an operational challenge.

Identifying Missing Medical Records

Another key issue was detecting gaps in treatment history. The firm needed a systematic approach to identify missing records and ensure that their experts had a complete set of documents before forming their opinions.

Overburdened Medical Professionals

Their internal medical professionals were spending too much time on administrative work, such as sorting, indexing, summarizing, and organizing medical records, rather than focusing on expert analysis. This inefficiency was limiting the firm’s ability to take on more cases and grow its business.

After understanding their challenges, LezDo TechMed implemented a customized approach to streamline their workflow and enhance client acquisition. We provided a suite of services tailored to their needs:
