Delayed Diagnosis Compensation Claims

Providing a correct and timely diagnosis of disease is essential to ensuring the best possible recovery for patients.

To make a correct diagnosis, patients will typically receive a range of tests including blood tests and imaging (i.e. MRI, CT, X-ray, and ultra-sound). This data combined with the other information gathered from medical notes, patient input and other sources, will allow doctors to form an opinion.

However, on occasion, medical professionals may fail to spot the signs of disease until it has advanced further and this may have serious health consequences to the life of the individual affected.
