Level 1 Service

Trauma-induced injury liens

Level 1 service is designed for mid-to-high volume healthcare providers, such as hospitals, outpatient surgical centers, urgent care centers, radiology and imaging centers, physical therapy centers, chiropractic offices and practices which have 5 or more licensed professionals such as Doctors (M.D., D.O. and Homeopathic), Nurse practitioners and others who commonly treat patients who have suffered trauma-induced injuries.

Reduce staff time - protect the timeliness of lien filing

Our system is designed to interface directly with your computer system. The information necessary to file the lien(s) in compliance with HIPPA and applicable State Medical Records and Information Privacy laws will be transmitted by a "business to business" application. This significantly reduces both staff time and the time between treatment and filing, thereby ensuring that your rights to full reimbursement for your services are protected.

For practitioners other than hospitals and ambulance companies, liens must be filed no later than 30 days from the first date of treatment.
