How To Claim Against The NHS
If you are wondering if you may be able to make a claim against the NHS for compensation for negligent medical care, your best first step should be to contact a specialist solicitor at the earliest possible moment.
Initiating a claim
Claiming compensation from the NHS is an extremely complex process, requiring meticulous investigations into medical care. Adherence to esoteric processes and deadlines is crucial to a successful claim, as is the deployment of the best skills of negotiation and understanding.
An experienced and skilled expert in medical negligence law is essential to the best possible outcome and you would be well advised to get their advice as soon as possible.
They will be able to support you every step of the way through your claim, ensuring that your claim is thoroughly researched and constructed to reflect the problems which you have suffered and the difficulties which you are experiencing as a result of the negligent care.
Bear in mind that claims are associated with a three-year deadline from the date of the alleged negligence. Don't delay before seeking expert legal advice.
The first steps
In the first instance, a specialist solicitor will listen to your description of what has occurred to you and work with you to produce a thorough statement of events. You will also need to provide them with the authority to obtain your medical records. The best medical experts will be engaged to analyse the quality of your care and identify whether or not you have, in fact, been the victim of negligence.
If it is, indeed, found to be the case that you have suffered from substandard care, an assessment of the impact of the negligence will be made, incorporating the financial losses which you have suffered as a result of the substandard care.
