WHAT IS MEDCO?
MedCo is the system used to facilitate the sourcing of medical reports in soft tissue injury claims brought under the Ministry of Justice Pre-Action Protocol for Low Value Personal Injury Claims in Road Traffic Accidents.
How does MedCo work?
How does MedCo work?
When a firm of solicitors or other instructing party requires a medical report the MedCo system searches for either an accredited direct medical expert (DME) or an audited medical reporting organisation (MRO).
From the search criteria entered the system returns an offer – a random but fair shortlist of medical experts and reporting organisations – from which the solicitor must make a selection. The offer is set by the MoJ and excludes any organisation or individual medical expert that has declared a direct financial link to the instruction party.
Once a report has been produced the DME or MRO uploads anonymised case data to MedCo. The report itself is not loaded on the MedCo system. This data is then used by MedCo to monitor and ensure the quality of medical reporting.
