Client Overview
A Qualified Medical Evaluator(QME) based in California had built a strong reputation for delivering accurate, objective, and high-quality medical-legal reports. Attorneys and claims administrators relied on his reports for clarity and strong evidence. So, he saw a rapid increase in referrals. But higher volume of medical records, complex documentation, and tighter deadlines created challenges. This raised concerns about maintaining report quality and meeting timelines.
To address these challenges, the QME partnered with a medical record review company. By outsourcing record organization and summarization, he thought of managing more cases efficiently while maintaining the accuracy and quality of his evaluations.
Challenges Faced
The QME expected a streamlined, accurate, and time-saving medical record review process by outsourcing to a professional vendor. Instead, he received poorly organized reports with missing information, errors, and unclear summaries. The solution intended to reduce his workload ended up creating more confusion, delays, and extra effort. The vendor’s failure to provide reliable and thorough reports led to several issues, including:
Incomplete and Inaccurate Medical Record Review
The outsourcing company missed key documents such as diagnostic imaging reports, physician notes, and follow-up consultations. They included wrong dates of injury, misunderstood medical terms, and listed medications not taken by the patient. Lab results were copied without context, and past surgeries were not mentioned. Important timelines, including the progression of symptoms and the effectiveness of treatments, were also not properly assessed.
Because of these omissions and inaccuracies, the QME couldn’t find the full scope of the injury and its impact. This led to the need for additional follow-up, record requests, and re-review of the case. This caused delays, added more work, and led to frustration, making it difficult to submit the report on time.
Poor Formatting and Organization
The report lacked a clear structure, making it difficult to navigate through the essential medical details. Key information was scattered across different sections, with no logical flow. Important findings were hidden in lengthy paragraphs without proper headings, making it hard to quickly identify critical points. It complicated the evaluation process of QME and increased the potential for errors.
