Physician Future-Care Assessment

A physician future-care assessment sets out, from a medical perspective, the future care that is reasonably needed because of the injuries at issue: for example follow-up evaluations, diagnostic testing, medications, therapies and procedures.

This is a physician opinion, not a full life care plan. It does not price future care, and it does not include a vocational assessment or an economic loss report. Those are separate services provided by separately identified professionals, and they are scoped and contracted separately.

• Review of the medical records
• An examination where appropriate, for New York and New Jersey matters
• A written physician opinion on future medical needs

Not included:

• Pricing of future care
• Preparation of a life care plan
• Vocational or economic analysis

New York and New Jersey matters, and matters in other jurisdictions where permitted. Out-of-state matters are screened individually at intake.

WMC does not publish a fee schedule. Each matter is quoted in writing after its scope, records volume, deadline and jurisdiction are confirmed.
