Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) cases are some of the most challenging records in the medicolegal world. Independent medical evaluators (IMEs), legal professionals, insurance adjusters all rely on the same dense, disorganized documents but each needs clear, defensible insights to make informed decisions. Reviewing these files manually often feels like searching for answers in a two thousand-page haystack.
SiftMed changes that.
Our AI-powered platform streamlines the entire medical review process so teams can spend less time sorting files and more time on decision making.
The Challenge: Dense, Disorganized Medical Files
An MVA case can easily run hundreds - or thousands - of pages. Following an accident, patients typically see multiple providers:
Family physicians
Physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists
Specialists
Imaging clinics
Emergency care providers
Each generates notes in different formats, using different terminology, and are documenting care in different levels of detail. The result? A fragmented, inconsistent, and chronologically disordered file that is difficult to navigate. In an MVA case, the details are everything.
Understanding the full timeline of events - from symptom onset, imaging results and diagnoses, and response treatment - is critical to determining causation, severity, prognosis, and entitlement. Every detail, date, and note matters.
The Solution: AI-Powered File Review
SiftMed is designed specifically to tackle the complexity of MVA medical records. Instead of manually sorting through thousands of documents, SiftMed automates the most-time consuming steps - while preserving reviewer oversight and defensibility.
With SiftMed, files are instantly organized, categorized, and arranged into a clean, chronological timeline. Users can search across documents for key injuries, diagnoses, or events and filter by provider type, content, and date. Our built-in AI Assistant, Sifty, lets you ask case questions up front and surfaces answers directly from the source material - always linked back to the source document.
This combination of structure, searchability, and transparency gives assessors a faster, clearer understanding of the case and confidence that nothing important has been overlooked.
Streamlining the Review Process in SiftMed
Reviewers move seamlessly from high-level case insights to the specific details that matter.
Start with questions that drive the case
Every assessment begins with core questions - causation, diagnosis, functional impact. These questions help shape the review and provide direction on where to focus. SiftMed can ask those questions the moment you upload a file - extracting answers directly from your documents and linked responses ready for review.
See the case timeline come to life
SiftMed automatically organizes records into chronological order and identifies document types, making the progression of a case easy to follow.
Move from overview to details
Once the file is organized, reviewers can scroll the case efficiently, flag key documents, keyword search files, and leverage filters to quickly isolate specific events, keywords, or time periods - ideal for both first-pass reviews and returning to a complex case months later.
SiftMed Simplifies Medical Reviews for MVA Cases
Capture insights as you go
Through the review, users can create notes directly in SiftMed - and each note can be referenced from the original page. When it’s time to produce a report, these notes can be pulled directly into your template or exported directly from the system.
The result is a streamlined workflow that eliminates the administrative burden and allows experts to focus on the clinical and legal judgment at the heart of every MVA review.
The Result: Faster, Clearer, and More Defensible Reports
With SiftMed, the heaviest parts of MVA file review happen with ease. Teams are able to focus on critical thinking and decision making of the case, instead of administrative work.
