Medical Report Fees cut to reduce fraud.
Medical report fees are to be slashed in a bid to reduce fraud for claimants in England and Wales.
The change has been brought about to reduce fraud. Some initial medical reports can cost as much as £700 a fee which will be reduced to £180, the logic behind this being that it will stop experts from having incentive to encourage costly treatment.
Our view is that any professional acting in this fashion should be struck off and a reduction in fees will not affect this. A fee of £700 does seem a lot and if the report can be done for £180 then we would welcome a simplified cheaper report so long as it does the job.
Around half a million claims are processed each year, many of which are thought to be bogus, costing each of us just short of £100 in increased insurance each year.
The new measures are just some of many; recent reforms have focused on the success fees a solicitor can charge, with solicitors now unable to double their fees if successful.
The criminal justice Bill, presently passing through parliament, will put a stop to firms incentivising potential clients to make a claim and will give the ability to courts to throw out any claims that are found to be dishonest, a step that we would have thought logical, as it would be bordering on farcical if allowed to continue.
A recent report showed that claims are not falling, many in the insurance industry have been calling for whiplash claims to be submitted directly to the insurance company, thus cutting out the middle man, a move which we don't feel should happen, as it could potentially put claimants at risk.
That said a review of the claims system to tackle inefficiency, costs, time scales and measures to tackle fraud, would be very welcome.
