Services

From early case screening to detailed reports, I provide the clinical depth and precision your cases demand.

Chronological Case Summaries

Clear, attorney-ready medical timelines in standard or detailed chronology formats. Events organized and explained in plain language, retaining clinical precision throughout.

Case Screening & Merit Evaluation

Early clinical assessment to help attorneys and carriers quickly determine whether a case has merit — saving time and resources before significant investment is made.

Standard of Care Analysis

An evidence-based clinical assessment of whether care met or deviated from accepted standards — with particular depth in perioperative, surgical, and OR environments.

Utilization Review Support

Clinical review of treatment plans, procedures, and billing in the context of medical necessity and appropriateness — grounded in hands-on Utilization Management (UM) experience.

Medical Record Review & Analysis

Thorough review of medical records for relevance, completeness, and clinical accuracy. I identify inconsistencies, gaps, and key clinical events that matter to your case.

Sarah Corbett, BSN, RN

My perioperative and OR background gives me a level of surgical depth that's rare in legal nurse consulting — and directly relevant to high-acuity and complex medical-legal cases. That specialization is paired with a broad clinical foundation, so I can bring the same analytical rigor to a wide range of case types.

Founder & Principal Consultant

With over a decade of clinical experience spanning private practice, surgery, and perioperative care — plus 4+ years in utilization management and clinical review — I founded Clinical Insight Consulting to bring real clinical depth to legal cases that demand it. I work as a true partner to law firms, third-party administrators (TPAs), and insurance carriers: responsive, precise, and attorney-ready from day one.

Utilization Management (UM) expertise
  • Surgical & OR specialty. Certified perioperative nursing background with deep OR experience — an area where clinical nuance is frequently misunderstood in legal contexts.
  • Objective, evidence-based analysis. My opinions are grounded in clinical evidence and nursing standards, not advocacy — which holds up under scrutiny.
  • Direct, attorney-ready deliverables. Summaries, chronologies, and analyses are formatted for legal use from the start — no translation layer required.
  • Utilization management background. I understand how payers think, how treatments are approved, and how billing patterns intersect with clinical reality.
  • Responsive and professional. I work as a true consulting partner — clear communication, reliable turnaround, and no surprises on scope or billing.
