The Role

We are inviting A&E consultants and senior clinicians with Medico-Legal experience to join our expanding panel of experts, supporting structured clinical negligence screening reports. This role is part of a high-volume, ongoing contract.

Each case involves:

• Reviewing medical records and letters of claim
• Addressing specific questions from the instructing party
• Producing a clear, impartial screening report that evaluates whether care met acceptable clinical standards and whether any failings contributed to patient harm

Key Benefits

• Fully remote role with flexible, case-by-case engagement
• Support throughout onboarding and case coordination
• Work allocated according to your clinical expertise and availability

This opportunity is particularly suited to A&E specialists with prior Medico-Legal experience and report writing skills. Professionals from other specialties are also encouraged to express interest.

Join a panel where your expertise helps shape fair, evidence-based clinical assessments while working on your own terms.

Key Details

• Start Date: Immediate onboarding available
• Contract Type: Ongoing, with flexible case-by-case allocation
• Workload: Approximately 130 cases per month distributed across the panel
• Location: Fully remote
• Schedule: Self-managed, with cases completed within agreed timeframes (typically 1–2 weeks from instruction)
• Engagement Model: Structured report-based work, suited to consultants and experienced clinicians with Medico-Legal expertise and the capacity to undertake short, focused assignments alongside existing commitments

Key Responsibilities

• Review medical records, letters of instruction, and letters of claim related to potential clinical negligence cases
• Provide structured, evidence-based screening reports addressing breach of duty and causation
• Respond clearly to specific questions provided by the instructing party
• Ensure reports are concise, impartial, and aligned with medico-legal standards
• Meet defined turnaround times for each case (typically within 1–2 weeks of instruction)
• Maintain professionalism, objectivity, and a clear separation between clinical opinion and legal process

Key Requirements

• Professional Registration: Active GMC registration.
• Medico-Legal Experience: Prior experience producing clinical negligence screening reports or structured Medico-Legal opinions.
• Training: Completion of formal Medico-Legal training (e.g. Bond Solon or Expert Witness Institute) is strongly preferred.
• Specialty Expertise: Clinical background in A&E/Emergency Medicine.
• Right to Work: You must hold valid Right to Work in the UK. Please note, ProMedical does not offer visa sponsorship.
