146,700 serious workers' compensation claims were filed in Australia in 2024. Many require extensive medical record review. MedExtract helps turn large record bundles into source-cited chronology outputs with audit trails and Australian data sovereignty by design.
Claim volumes are rising, mental health cases are surging, and the medical records keep getting longer and more complex.
Psychological injury claims involve multiple treating practitioners, lengthy treatment histories, and complex causation arguments. A single claim can generate thousands of pages of records spanning years.
Between paralegal time and outsourced BPO summarisation, the cost of manual review erodes claim margins. NSW workers' comp premiums have risen 8% annually for three consecutive years.
Many firms outsource record review to offshore BPO providers or use US-based AI tools. Both process sensitive health information outside Australian jurisdiction, creating Privacy Act exposure.
Manual summaries don't link to source pages. There's no confidence scoring or provenance tracking. If a chronology is challenged in proceedings, there's no chain of evidence to defend it.
MedExtract's pipeline is purpose-built for Australian workers' compensation workflows — from upload to court-ready output.
Every clinical event, diagnosis, treatment, medication, and provider extracted into a date-ordered timeline. Hyperlinked to source pages in the original records.
Understands AMA 4/5 impairment ratings, state-specific WorkCover assessment criteria, whole person impairment calculations, Medicare and PBS references, and Australian clinical terminology.
Live customer pilots are scoped around Australian-hosted processing and storage, with model-provider, retention, access, and deletion requirements confirmed before live workers compensation records are processed.
Confidence scores per extraction, source page citations, model provenance logs, and flagged items requiring review. Reviewer checks can be included where your workflow requires them.
