We would like to know what you like / dislike about the service which you received. Review of Reports On receipt of medical reports from our Experts, they are examined for clerical accuracy and medical content to ensure minimum standards as set out in the Terms of Service. Location We will ensure that the Clients have no further than 15-20 miles to travel for Medical Appointments with exceptions in certain areas. Our aim is to make a convenient appointment by arranging it as near to where the client lives.

  4. Company Operating System Alpha Medicolegal can accept information electronically or by mail. Within 48 hours, we will notify the names of appropriate Medical Experts practising in the Client’s area. Close attention is paid to the suitability of the Experts put forward with regard to waiting times and professional charges.

  5. Instruction to expert The nominated Expert will be instructed to provide an appointment and prepare a medical report when all the relevant documents have been received, and will be sent a copy of the acting Solicitor’s instruction letter. We write to the Client to notify them of the appointment date, venue and the name of the examining Expert. The Client should be offered an appointment date within 10 days in the case of GP Instructions and 14 - 28 days for Consultant cases. On receipt of appointment dates, we will send notification to the Solicitor and contact the Client to confirm that they are aware of the appointment and are able to attend. Alpha Medicolegal will acquire medical records as per instructions. Under the Data Protection Act 1998, healthcare establishments have 40 days to comply with a request for the release of records. We pay for the discharge of records and on receipt, they are photocopied; a copy is kept on file and a second copy is forwarded to the Medical Expert. We have an excellent system of reminders on the database. If the appointment, medical records and reports are not received within set time limits, we will expedite the matter and keep the Solicitor informed of any delays. We would expect to receive the medical report from a GP within 1 – 3 weeks from the examination. In the case of Consultant reports, we would expect receipt within 2 – 4 weeks following the date of the examination. If the medical report is not received within these timescales, we regularly chase the Expert by telephone and in writing and notify the instructing Solicitor. Upon receipt, reports are checked for administrative accuracy, compliance and presentation. If the report is satisfactory, the original copy is forwarded to the Instructing Party along with an invoice that includes administrative charges. As a service provider it is of utmost importance that we receive feedback on the service the company offers in order to continually develop and enhance the service received by its customers.
