SETTLEMENT CLAIM SCORING SUPPORT

Every claimant scored against the same matrix — with the page behind each element.

Settlement claim scoring support reads each claimant file for the elements a court-approved allocation matrix turns on: injury tier, exposure window, causation interval, and aggravating or mitigating modifiers. Every element comes back cited to its page, with a deficiency list for everything the file is still missing. The administrator scores it.

The matrix is court-approved. So is the referee.

We do not build for a case type until we can name the standard that defines a correct output and the person who grades the file against it. In matrix-scored settlement programs, both are on the docket in writing.

That is what makes the work checkable. The elements are enumerated in the allocation exhibit, the grader is appointed by the court, and every determination is written, appealable, and attached to money.

The rulebook and the referee
The rulebook
  • The court-approved Allocation Methodology and the MSA exhibits attached to it: the settlement's own scoring instrument, filed and public
  • The case management orders that operationalise it, such as the 3M MDL 2885 CMO 86 point grid
  • Program-specific award grids, such as the NFL Concussion Monetary Award Grid
  • Injury tier, exposure window, causation interval, and the aggravating and mitigating modifiers that move a claim inside its tier
The referee
  • The Claims Administrator, who scores each claim against the matrix and issues the determination
  • Reconsideration, then re-review by a court-appointed Allocation Special Master under FRCP 53
  • Defendant audit rights over the scored inventory, with DOJ fraud referral behind them
  • Written, appealable, and with money attached at every step

What the file actually looks like

Six hundred pages on a good day. Eight thousand on a bad one.

On 3 August 2026 the JPML counted 205,540 pending actions across 162 MDLs. Scoring is the step between that docket and money reaching claimants, and it is done one file at a time, by hand, against a grid the court has already published.

600–8000

Pages in one claimant file

A single matrix-scored claimant file typically runs between 600 and 8,000 pages, with the middle of the range sitting around 4,300. The scored elements are a few dozen words somewhere inside that.

MULTI

Never one production

Records arrive in waves: the plaintiff fact sheet, the first medical production, the supplemental production after the deficiency notice, then the exhibits. In the demo case, 342 pages arrived across 2 packets and 11 pages were duplicates of pages already read.

HARD

Degraded, handwritten, and mis-filed

Faxed-then-rescanned charts, handwritten intake forms, and pages that belong to a different claimant entirely. In the demo case, page 140 was another patient's record; it was quarantined on its own line rather than folded silently into the read.

What we'd build with you

Four steps, starting with one real file.

Every allocation matrix is different, so we do not pretend to have yours pre-loaded. We build against your matrix, with your files, and you keep the scoring call the whole way through.

01

Send one real file

One claimant file as it actually arrives, plus the allocation exhibit or CMO that defines the elements. Any format, degraded scans included, under a signed BAA.

02

We return the read

Every matrix element we can find in the file, each one cited to the page it came from, and a deficiency list naming what is still missing against which element. No point total, no dollar figure.

03

We scope the build

You mark where the read is wrong or thin. That correction becomes the element definition, the output template, and the QA rules for your inventory. If it is not buildable to your standard, we say so at this step.

04

You run it

Your reviewers work from the cited read; the Claims Administrator scores and issues the determination. Related in this lane: asbestos trust claim review and abuse claim matrix review.

HIPAA, under a signed BAA

Every file is handled under our Business Associate Agreement, from the first byte.

Never trains a model

Your records are never used to train any AI model — ours or anyone else's.

Every line cited

If we can't cite it, we don't say it. Every sentence links to its source page.

Deleted after delivery

Files are deleted 30 days after delivery, with a full audit log of every access.

Powered by the platform

Four capabilities behind every scored file.

Matrix element reads are one deliverable of the same platform that reads, sorts, and cites the whole record. The output format is yours, built in the custom report builder.

Mass Tort Batch Processing

Inventories are read in batches against the same element list in the same order, so the output does not drift from claimant to claimant.

IN ACTION · 2 packets → one merged claimant read

Medical Chronology

The exposure-to-diagnosis timeline builds itself from the production, which is what the causation interval is measured across.

IN ACTION · first exposure → first diagnosis, one timeline

Missing Records Identification

The gaps are named, not guessed at: which matrix element has no supporting document, and where in the file that document should sit.

IN ACTION · gaps → the deficiency list a notice is drafted from

Verifiable AI Citations

If we can't cite it, we don't say it. Every element in the read links to the page it was pulled from, which is what an audit or an appeal asks for.

FAQ

Settlement claim scoring, answered.

No. We read each claimant file for the elements the matrix turns on — injury tier, exposure window, causation interval, and the aggravating and mitigating modifiers — and return each one cited to the page it came from. The Claims Administrator applies the matrix and issues the determination; the court-appointed Allocation Special Master hears the appeal. We never assign a point total or a dollar figure.

Files are read in batches, and every claimant is read against the same element list in the same order, so the output does not drift from reviewer to reviewer across an inventory. The JPML counted 205,540 pending actions across 162 MDLs on August 3, 2026. What a specific inventory costs and how fast it moves is scoped against your real files, not quoted in advance.

Yes. The plaintiff fact sheet, the records behind it, and the exhibits attached to it are read as one production. Where the fact sheet asserts a date or a diagnosis the records do not support, we surface the discrepancy with both page citations. We do not resolve it for you, and we do not decide which version is correct.

Every element the matrix requires that the file does not contain comes back as a listed deficiency, named against the matrix element it belongs to. That list is what a deficiency notice gets drafted from. We assemble and cite the underlying list; the Claims Administrator issues the notice and sets the cure period.

No. Medrecords AI does not retrieve records from providers or facilities. You bring the records you already have — review starts in minutes from upload. Retrieval vendors take days; you can keep yours and still cut the review to minutes.

Send one file. We'll tell you what we can read.

No obligation. If the case type is buildable we'll scope it; if it isn't, we'll say so.
