Medical Malpractice
AGS staffs can play an important role in determining the merits of a medical malpractice claim. Reviews are mainly conducted for the purpose of identifying merit and causation. The initial chart review by a AGS should be able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of any particular case along with any deviation from the standards of care. The AGS may also serve as the expert for the particular case in question or identify a more appropriate expert for the case.
