So are you still doing record retrieval in your own law firm?

I know in my law firm it became very frustrating.
0:06
0 minutes 6 seconds
And that’s because the amount of time and effort that I watched our case managers doing in order to get one record in the door.
0:13
0 minutes 13 seconds
So first of all, they would call the provider and the provider would say, Oh no, we don’t do our own records.
0:17
0 minutes 17 seconds
You have to call XY and Z.
0:19
0 minutes 19 seconds
And then they would call XY and Z and they say, Oh no, well, we stopped doing records for them.
0:23
0 minutes 23 seconds
It’s now switched to so and so or we don’t do their bills, only their records.
0:27
0 minutes 27 seconds
So you have to call so and so for the bills and then we would set the request and then we’d follow up a few days later to make sure they received the recourse.
0:34
0 minutes 34 seconds
They’re like, Oh no, we never got it.
0:35
0 minutes 35 seconds
And so then we have to send the request again.
0:37
0 minutes 37 seconds
And so there was so much repetition around and around and around of calling providers and getting things in.
0:43
0 minutes 43 seconds
And then they send us records and the records are incomplete.
0:45
0 minutes 45 seconds
It’s missing pages.
0:46
0 minutes 46 seconds
It really became frustrating.
0:47
0 minutes 47 seconds
And what I saw suffer was our contact with our clients and building the value in their medical cases by having the case managers talk to them about their treatment and their needs.
0:56
0 minutes 56 seconds
And so I thought, this is ridiculous.
0:58
0 minutes 58 seconds
And we tried using another record retrieval company.
1:01
1 minute 1 second
So we didn’t do it internally, and that was a disaster.
1:03
1 minute 3 seconds
So I formed my own record retrieval company, records on time.
1:06
1 minute 6 seconds
And so now we have our team in the law firm focus on clients, building liability, taking care of them, medical management, and really getting the most value out of the cases.
1:15
1 minute 15 seconds
And we use records on time for my own law firm to really build value in cases, save money, create efficiency.
1:22
1 minute 22 seconds
And so if you’re using your own team, I’m sure they’re frustrated because I know I was.
