Medical Canvassing and Provider Discovery

In many litigation matters, not all treating providers are immediately known. SummitTrace conducts medical canvassing to identify healthcare providers and facilities that may hold relevant medical records. This process helps uncover additional sources of documentation that may be critical to understanding treatment history and case context. Medical canvassing may include:

  • Provider and facility discovery
  • Identification of treatment locations
  • Confirmation of healthcare custodians
  • Coordination with retrieval workflows for record acquisition

Documentation Integrity and Traceability

When medical evidence is used in litigation, the documentation process must be clear and defensible. SummitTrace maintains detailed logs and documentation throughout the evidence preparation process to ensure traceability between medical records, summaries, and the retrieval workflow. This approach helps ensure that medical documentation remains verifiable and defensible during legal review.
