Discovery to Medical Provider Defendants
When sending interrogatories and requests for production of documents to medical provider defendants, make sure to always ask for information regarding the continuing medical education courses the defendants have taken during the prior few years. Make sure to request information such as the names of the courses, when and where the courses were taken, and who provided the courses. Additionally, ask for information regarding any courses provided by their employers. Some medical providers and/or their employers maintain a listing of all continuing medical education courses taken by the medical provider, so you would want to request this list. Often times the medical provider has taken courses which relate to the topics in your case. In those instances, it is also helpful to see if the medical provider has maintained handouts from those courses and to request copies of those handouts.
