Motor Vehicle Accidents
Independent medical experts can assess and document the medical aspects of injuries sustained by individuals involved in a motor vehicle accident. Our independent medical opinions help establish a connection between the injuries and the accident, providing evidence for insurance claims or legal proceedings.
When motor vehicle accidents occur, individuals involved may sustain a wide range of injuries, from minor bruises to severe trauma. Medico legal opinions from 360 Medico Legal’s experts are instrumental in evaluating and documenting these injuries in relation to the accident. Independent medical opinions from our medical specialists can also establish their potential long-term impact.
Our role in motor vehicle accident claims
Our independent medical experts can provide an objective evaluation of the injuries sustained in the motor vehicle accident, determining the cause of the injuries, linking them to the accident, and assessing their impact on the individual’s life, such as their ability to work, engage in daily activities, or enjoy a good quality of life.
Our medico legal reports provide crucial evidence in insurance claims proceedings related to motor vehicle accidents, including the validity and extent of injury claims. Similarly, in legal settings, independent medico legal opinions help establish a connection between the accident and the injuries, assisting in determining liability and appropriate compensation for the injured party.
Involving 360 Medico Legal in your motor vehicle accident claim or case in Australia ensures that the medical aspects of the injuries sustained are thoroughly assessed, documented, and connected to the accident. This collaboration between medical and legal professionals helps individuals obtain the necessary support, treatment, and any compensation they deserve following a motor vehicle accident.
OUR PROCESS
The four stages of our process ensure that your Medico-Legal report is of the highest standard.
STEP 1: INSTRUCT
360 Medico Legal receives instructions from solicitors, insurers and case managers together with medical documents. The referrer is provided with a list of potential independent medical specialists. Often the enquiry needs a particular specialisation or field of practice, and 360 Medico Legal can assist with this.
STEP 2: PREPARATION
An appointment is made with the client to visit our rooms. The 360 Medico Legal team ensures all necessary reports and medical information is available for the specialist.
STEP 3: APPOINTMENT
The client attends our offices for their consultation with the independent medical specialist. To maximise efficiency, the client can see more than one specialist on the same day. Are you outside Perth? We also offer medico legal assessments via telehealth across Australia as well as in person at specific locations.
STEP 4: REPORTING
Our independent medico legal reports are completed by the specialist(s) and vetted by the in-house Quality Audit team - which is headed up by our CIR accredited & Registered Clinical Nurse Manager. The completed medico legal reports are then provided to the instructing referrer within two weeks of the final consultation.
