## Which report should you write for a birth injury case?

A birth injury file runs as Medical Malpractice in Medrecords AI, so it uses the Medical Malpractice reports. 3 start pre-selected: Medical Malpractice Record Review, Standard of Care Analysis and Causation Analysis. You can add others, such as a Damages Summary or a Life Care Plan. There is no report made only for birth injury.

### The 3 pre-selected reports

| Report | What it covers | Sections |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Medical Malpractice Record Review | The whole course of care | Records Reviewed; Summary of Care; Detailed Care Sequence; Results and Follow-up; Facts Identified for Expert Review; Body Systems and Conditions Involved; Damages Documentation; Medical Expenses (Billed Charges) |
| Standard of Care Analysis | What was ordered, done and charted | Records Reviewed; The Care at Issue; What Was Ordered; What Was Documented; Assessments and the Responses to Them; Communication and Escalation; Facts Identified for Expert Review |
| Causation Analysis | What the records say about how the harm came about | The Question Presented; Records Reviewed; The Mechanism as Described; Onset and Temporal Sequence; Findings Consistent with the Claimed Mechanism; Findings Inconsistent With It, or Pointing Elsewhere; What the Records Do Not Say; Provider Opinions on Causation |

For a birth injury file, the Detailed Care Sequence and Communication and Escalation sections are where labor events tend to show up. Check them against the facts you found in [the analysis step](https://medrecords.ai/help/case-types/birth-injury/analysis/).

### Other reports you can add

- **Damages Summary** for treatment burden, function and future care as documented.
- **Life Care Plan** for future care needs.
- **Deposition Preparation Summary** for providers, witnesses and contradictions.
- **Certificate of Merit Support Memo** and **Affidavit of Merit** . These are drafts for your expert to review. Counsel checks the wording for the forum.
- **Pre-existing Condition Analysis** , **Demand Package Narrative** and **Rebuttal** .
- **Missing Records & Gap Analysis** and **Case Strengths & Weaknesses** , which any case type can make.

A Rebuttal needs the other side's document uploaded first. Reading it costs 1 credit per page on top of the report.

3. Pick the **Case** and the **Report type** .

### Make a birth injury template

You can save your own layout for birth injury files.

1. Open **Settings** , then **Report templates** .
2. Press **Duplicate** on a built-in Medical Malpractice template, or build 1 from up to 6 of your past reports.

6. Press **Use as default** if you want it first each time.

See [set up report templates](https://medrecords.ai/help/tasks/templates/).

### Before you send a report

Press **Run Verification and Cross-Examination** . Each claim is marked Supported, Unsupported, Contradicted or Not checked. Open the cited page for any time, drug dose or score you plan to quote.
