Medical Negligence Bundle Software

BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template handles trial bundles up to 1,000 pages per bundle — for very large medical-records sets, split across multiple bundles by issue or section. Upload medical records by source (GP, A&E, consultant, theatre, anaesthetic, drug charts); the tool sequences them chronologically inside Section C, applies OCR throughout for keyword search, paginates continuously, and bookmarks each treating clinician. Breach experts, causation experts, condition-and-prognosis, care, accommodation, and deputyship reports each get their own section. Output: one PDF in around 30-60 minutes, ready for the King's Bench Division clinical negligence list.

BundleCreator orders medical records chronologically across all sources into Section C of the trial bundle. Upload GP records, hospital admissions, consultant letters, theatre notes, drug charts, and imaging reports as you obtain them — the tool merges them by date, applies OCR so the trial judge and counsel can keyword-search across the lot, and bookmarks each treating clinician for navigation. No manual rebuilds when late records arrive; the tool re-paginates and re-bookmarks automatically. Bundle limit is 1,000 pages per bundle, so very large records sets are split across multiple bundles by date range or issue.

The Pre-Action Protocol for the Resolution of Clinical Disputes requires a Letter of Claim with a clear summary of facts, allegations of negligence, alleged injury, causation case, and quantum indication. BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template produces a Protocol-stage bundle: Letter of Claim, supporting medical records (chronologically arranged), expert support letter on breach and causation, draft witness statements, and any relevant consent forms. See [Pre-Action Protocol for Clinical Negligence: Letter of Claim Walkthrough](/blog/clinical-negligence-pre-action-protocol-letter-of-claim).

Most clinical negligence cases need separate experts on breach of duty (the Bolam-Bolitho test for clinical practice generally — a responsible body of medical opinion that withstands logical analysis; with Montgomery v Lanarkshire applying the patient-centred test for consent and risk-disclosure cases) and on causation (but-for or material contribution). BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template has Section D for breach experts (claimant's, defendant's, and the joint statement) and Section E for causation experts (claimant's, defendant's, joint statement). Joint statements are bookmarked for fast navigation, and the hyperlinked index lets the trial judge jump from one expert's view on an issue to the opposing view. See [Clinical Negligence Expert Evidence: Breach of Duty vs Causation Reports](/blog/clinical-negligence-expert-evidence-breach-causation).

BundleCreator runs on Google Cloud's London region (europe-west2) — primary storage, backups, and processing all in the UK. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Patient medical records, expert reports, and witness statements stay within UK borders, removing UK GDPR Article 44 international-transfer concerns. Aligned with the solicitors' professional duty of confidentiality and AvMA panel firm expectations on data residency.

BundleCreator's Essential tier is £19.99 a month with no per-bundle fee — well-suited to sole practitioners running clinical negligence claims on Conditional Fee Agreements. It produces a Pre-Action Protocol bundle or a King's Bench Division trial bundle with continuous pagination, OCR'd medical records, hyperlinked index, and breach/causation/quantum section structures. The Pro tier (£39.99) handles 40 bundles a month for higher-volume firms.

BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template structures the trial bundle into Section D (breach experts), Section E (causation experts), Section F (condition and prognosis), Section G (care, accommodation, deputyship), and Section I (Schedule of Loss / counter-schedule). Each section is bookmarked individually, and the hyperlinked index lets the trial judge jump between split-trial issues. Common in catastrophic-injury cases where breach is admitted and causation/quantum is the live battle.

Catastrophic-injury cases (severe brain injury, tetraplegia, complex obstetric injury) typically need a life expectancy expert addressing impaired-population statistics rather than general-population actuarial data. BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template has Section F (condition and prognosis) for the life expectancy report, with cross-references to the care expert's per-year care costs and the Schedule of Loss's Periodical Payment Order calculations. The bundle is paginated, OCR'd, and bookmarked so the trial judge can navigate between life expectancy, care, and quantum efficiently.

Catastrophic clinical negligence claims often resolve via a Periodical Payments Order (PPO) under the Damages Act 1996 section 2. The Schedule of Loss must distinguish capitalised lump-sum losses (general damages, past losses, accommodation under the Swift v Carpenter reversionary methodology) from PPO-funded future losses (typically care, case management, equipment, therapies, and other recurring needs). The PPO/lump-sum split is case-specific and informed by the parties' positions on indexation, life expectancy, and security of payment. BundleCreator's Medical Negligence template has a Schedule of Loss / Counter-Schedule slot in Section I with sub-sections for each loss head and PPO-eligible items clearly flagged.
