Welcome to another insightful episode of the Legal Nurse Podcast! I’m your host, Pat Iyer, and today we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most powerful tools in the legal nurse consultant’s arsenal: the medical record audit trail. With my guest, seasoned nurse practitioner and legal nurse consultant Amy Puls, we’re diving deep into how audit trails unravel key facts hidden beneath the surface of electronic medical records (EMRs). If you’ve ever wondered how attorneys and LNCs can truly dig into the timeline of events in a patient’s medical care, this episode is for you.

Throughout our discussion, Amy shares real-world stories where audit trails were game-changers—including multimillion-dollar settlements and cases where critical facts came to light only because an expert knew where to look. We explore why getting an audit trail early in a case can make all the difference, the various types of audit trails, and what to ask for when requesting this vital data. Plus, Amy reveals tips on dealing with common defense pushbacks, the importance of proper formatting (hint: always ask for Excel!), and why audit trail expertise is a growing subspecialty for legal nurse consultants.

Tune in as we demystify audit trails, provide actionable strategies for both plaintiff and defense teams, and highlight how trained professionals like Amy can spot the “missing pieces” others might overlook. By the end of this episode, you’ll appreciate the indispensable role audit trails play in medical malpractice litigation and understand the immense value trained LNCs bring to the table.

What you’ll learn in this episode on The Hidden Power of Audit Trails in Legal Nurse Consulting

Check out this podcast to get these answers:

What is an audit trail in the context of electronic medical records, and why is it such a powerful tool in legal cases?

How can legal nurse consultants and attorneys use audit trails to uncover discrepancies or hidden actions within medical records?

What are some examples of real-life cases where information from an audit trail significantly impacted the outcome of litigation?

What challenges might attorneys and consultants face when requesting and receiving audit trails from healthcare facilities?

Who is best qualified to analyze audit trails, and why is specialized training critical for interpreting these complex datasets?
