The 2023 reforms to the Civil Procedure Rules introduced fixed recoverable costs (FRC) and the Intermediate Track for most personal injury claims valued between £25,000 and £100,000.
These changes place greater emphasis on early consideration of case complexity, litigation track, and the need for rehabilitation plans to be clinically appropriate and proportionate.
Medicess recognises the impact of these changes. Our Intermediate Track Service is designed to support personal injury solicitors and their clients by providing early, doctor-led clinical insight to inform decision-making and rehabilitation planning within the fixed-cost regime.
We provide a free, structured clinical review within 2–3 working days of instruction, designed to support early assessment and planning in personal injury claims falling within the Intermediate Track.
This early medical insight helps:
Our clinical review supports legal teams in developing an informed view prior to submitting the Directions Questionnaire (Form N181). It helps you:
Consider whether the clinical features of a case indicate increased complexity
Support informed pre-action correspondences
Plan future rehabilitation in line with CPR expectations
The fixed recoverable costs (FRC) regime places a premium on early, efficient, and proportionate action. Medicess supports this by:
Delivering an early clinical overview that reduces the need for multiple preliminary assessments, saving time and cost
Supporting compliance with procedural requirements around early issue narrowing, case preparation and rehabilitation planning
