## The recall names the device. *The case has to name the serial number.*

Medrecords AI lines up the device file with the medical file: the DME delivery, the serial number, the usage downloads, the recall and the replacement, then the symptoms, the diagnosis and every other cause the chart records. Every entry links to its page.

Where CPAP cases turn

### 6 places the claims review looks first. The chronology gets you there before it does.

A CPAP claim needs the right device, enough use and a diagnosis on the list. These are the points where it gets decided, each flagged with its page.

Device file

#### Which device

The model and serial number from the DME delivery ticket, the recall registration and the replacement record, side by side.

#### What you send

- DME delivery tickets, usage downloads and recall records

#### We lay out the record. Your experts give the causation opinion.

We assemble and cite the device history, the use and the medical course. We do not say the foam caused the illness, decide settlement eligibility or value the claim. Those belong to your experts and the claims process.

**HIPAA, under a signed BAA** — Every file is handled under our Business Associate Agreement.
**SOC 2** — Encryption in transit and at rest, and PHI access logging on every event.
**Never trains a model** — Your records never train any AI model, ours or anyone else’s.
**Deleted after delivery** — Files are deleted 30 days after delivery, with an audit log of every access.
Questions

### Philips CPAP case review, answered.

**Can you confirm the device was part of the recall?**
We pull the model and serial number from every record that shows them, with pages. Whether that device was covered is checked against the recall list by you.

**Can you read usage downloads?**
Yes, if you have them as documents or printouts. Compliance reports and usage summaries are read like any other record and placed on the timeline.

**Does this help with settlement claim packets?**
Yes. The device, use, diagnosis and dates are pulled into 1 cited summary per claimant, ready for your team to check against the claim criteria.

**Do you retrieve records from providers?**
No. Medrecords AI does not retrieve records from providers or facilities. You bring the records you already have, and review starts in minutes from upload.
