TRUCKING ACCIDENT RECORD REVIEW

## Two medical files decide the trucking case. Most reviews read one.

Trucking accident record review services build two cited timelines from one case: the plaintiff’s injury course from the scene through every treating provider, and the driver’s medical qualification history under Part 391, with each entry linked to its page. Fitness and causation opinions stay with your experts.

### The driver’s medical fitness runs on a federal rulebook, not on judgment.

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 trucking litigation, the driver’s side of the file is governed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations outright.

The standard and the referee
The rulebook
- 49 CFR Part 391 Subpart E, §§391.41 through 391.49, the physical qualification standards a commercial driver has to meet and the medical examination report that documents them
- The FMCSA Medical Examiner Handbook and the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, which govern who may certify a driver and what the examination has to cover
- 49 CFR Part 382, the controlled substances and alcohol testing rules, and the FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse record that accompanies them
- Fed. R. Evid. 702 as amended in December 2023, under which opinions on injury causation and on the driver’s fitness both have to be reliably applied to this record

The referee
- The certified medical examiner on the National Registry, whose examination report and certificate the driver qualification file either contains or does not
- FMCSA on the carrier’s driver qualification file, where a missing, expired or improperly issued certificate is a recorded violation rather than an argument
- The trial court on negligent hiring, qualification and retention, which reads the driver’s medical file against Part 391 before the injury evidence is reached

A driver qualification file nobody read until the deposition

How it works

### 3 steps between the two files and the chronologies.

01

#### Send both files

The plaintiff’s medical records and the driver qualification file: medical examination reports, certificates, the Clearinghouse query, and any post-accident testing, in any format.

02

#### We return two chronologies, page-cited

The plaintiff’s treatment from the scene forward, and the driver’s certification history with every examination, finding, certificate and expiry date placed on one line.

03

#### Your experts take it from there

Whether the driver should have been certified, and whether the crash caused the injury, are both expert questions. The chronologies are what those opinions get built on.

The boundary, in writing

### Two chronologies of the record, not an opinion that the driver was unfit.

We assemble and cite what the examination reports, certificates and treating charts say. We do not opine that a driver was medically unqualified, that a certificate was improperly issued, or that unfitness caused the collision. Those are opinions for a qualified examiner and your retained experts.

In the demo case, page 140 turned out to belong to a different patient. In a two-file trucking case that error can move a finding from the driver onto the plaintiff, so it is quarantined rather than reconciled quietly.

#### 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

### 7 capabilities behind every trucking chronology.

The trucking chronology is one deliverable of the same platform that reads, sorts, and cites the whole record.

#### Medical Records OCR

Every page read in full, including the medical examination reports most reviews never open.

IN ACTION · 342 pp / 2 packets → 27 documents, read in full

 [

#### Medical Chronology

Both timelines assemble from their own dates, so the driver’s certification history reads against the crash date on its own line.

IN ACTION · certification history → crash date, one timeline

 [

#### Verifiable AI Citations

Every entry links back to its page, on both sides of the file.

IN ACTION · both chronologies → cited 100%

#### Medical Summary Reports

 [

#### Medical Record Deduplication

Forty charts pulled from multiple practices and EHR migrations carry their share of duplicate visit notes. Each is matched and collapsed to one canonical record, so the prescribing pattern is read once per real encounter.

IN ACTION · 40 charts → duplicate visit notes collapsed to 1 record each
](https://medrecords.ai/product/medical-record-deduplication/)
 [

#### Missing Records Identification

A prescribing pattern read across 40 charts is only as sound as the file behind it. When a chart references a visit, refill, or referral that never made it into the production, the gap is flagged before the pattern goes to the board.

IN ACTION · prescribing pattern cross-checked → gaps flagged before submission

#### Cross-Exam Simulator (beta)

A board investigator or defense counsel builds a case from the chart abstraction. This beta tool maps the questioning a physician facing that hearing is likely to face on the gaps and pattern in their own record. A rehearsal tool, not legal advice.

FAQ

### Trucking accident record review, answered.

No. We lay out every examination finding beside the §391.41 standard it bears on, with pages, so the question is answerable. Whether the certificate should have issued is an opinion for a certified medical examiner or your retained expert.

A DOT certification review reads one driver’s file against the standard, usually for a carrier or an examiner. This reads two files in one case: the plaintiff’s injury chronology and the driver’s certification history, built to be argued against each other.

The gap is flagged with the date range it covers. A missing or expired certificate is a fact about the file rather than an inference, and under Part 391 it is the carrier’s obligation, so it is reported as an absence rather than filled in.

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.
