Publisher's Synopsis
Today, all litigants have a duty to request and disclose responsive electronic evidence in their cases. Whether your cases are small or large, or whether you are solo practitioner, or part of large medical organization, discovery issues relating to ESMI ("Electronically Stored Medical Information") will have to be addressed and resolved. The purpose of the E-Discovery Nuts and Bolts for Healthcare Professionals is to offer an overview and electronic workbook for the myriad of legal and technology issues that need to be addressed whether you are requesting or producing "electronically stored medical information" or ESMI. This workbook will provide a plan and pretrial steps in discovering and disclosing ESMI. Depending on the unique pretrial issues of your case, this plan may necessitate a different approach and should be considered on a case-by-case basis.
