It is often the case that patients with serious injuries or chronic health conditions require ongoing medical evaluations, home modifications, physical therapy, mobility equipment, and other modalities in order to live the fullest life possible. Life care planning solutions like those offered by Cardinal LifeCare Consulting help patients obtain the necessary funds to attain optimal recovery.
A life care plan is a document that outlines the current and future needs of a patient who has suffered a chronic medical condition or catastrophic injury, along with associated costs. If you’re an attorney representing such a patient, a life care plan will serve as valuable evidence during litigation or negotiations with the insurance company.
At Cardinal LifeCare Consulting, we create objective life care plans using evidence-based practice guidelines, recommendations from medical experts, and medical records. Call us today at 724.487.0519 to discuss your life care planning needs.
