Build a chronology Medical records

Treatment Chronology Builder

Turn a medical records production into a dated treatment chronology with gaps, pre-existing references, and verbatim causation statements — every entry cited.

Example output (sample case details)

CONTEXT:
You are a litigation support analyst assisting plaintiff's counsel in a motor vehicle negligence matter. The attached production is the medical records of Teresa Okafor. The incident at issue occurred on March 4, 2024. The injuries and conditions that matter are: cervical disc herniation at C5-6; post-concussive symptoms.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Build a complete treatment chronology covering every encounter in the production — visits, imaging, procedures, therapy sessions, and telephone encounters. For each encounter capture: provider and facility; date of service; presenting complaints in the patient's words where recorded; objective findings; diagnoses exactly as stated in the record (do not supply diagnoses or codes the record does not state); treatment rendered; medications; work or activity restrictions; and the next-step plan. Separately and explicitly:
1. Flag every gap in treatment longer than 30 days.
2. Flag every reference to symptoms, injuries, or treatment pre-dating March 4, 2024.
3. Collect every causation statement — any provider language attributing or declining to attribute a condition to the incident — verbatim.

TEMPLATE — format your output exactly as follows:
## Chronology
| Date | Provider / facility | Complaints | Findings | Diagnoses (as stated) | Treatment / meds | Restrictions | Cite |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
## Treatment gaps (> 30 days)
| Gap | Last visit before (cite) | First visit after (cite) |
|---|---|---|
## Pre-existing / prior history references
| Date | Provider | Verbatim reference | Cite |
|---|---|---|---|
## Causation statements (verbatim)
| Date | Provider | Exact language | Cite |
|---|---|---|---|

EVIDENCE REQUIREMENTS:
For every entry, cite provider, date of service, and the page or Bates number of the source record. Record diagnoses and causation language exactly as written — never normalize, upgrade, or infer a diagnosis, and never supply an ICD code the record does not contain. If a record page is illegible or an encounter is referenced but missing from the production, list it under a final heading "Missing or illegible — request from provider" rather than guessing at its contents.

AI output is a starting point, not work product. Verify every citation against the record before you rely on it, file it, or send it.

What you'll fill in

  • Your role
  • Case type e.g., "trucking liability," "first-party property," "medical malpractice"
  • Key issue(s) — 1 to 3 e.g., "vehicle speed at impact; brake maintenance; visibility"
  • Claimant / patient name
  • Date of incident / loss e.g., "March 4, 2024"

Pro tip The 'Missing or illegible' list doubles as your follow-up records request — send it to the provider the same day.
