What is medical expertise?
Medical expertise is that which relates Medicine and Law and is fundamental in Health Law.
The specialist is a medical expert, who with knowledge of both branches is capable of evaluating and giving a verdict on the state of health of a person who has suffered physical or psychological damage.
The expert has a great responsibility when analyzing any case to analyze the information, understand it and reason it, and thus be able to issue an impartial and forceful Medical Expertise.
Evaluations by a medical expert are fundamental to the time to proceed among others in the following aspects:
- Compensation for accidents
- Work disabilities
