On the same day that the Government’s new changes to the benefits system came into effect (1st April 2013) new laws also came into force that change the way personal injury claims will now be dealt with.
The Royal College of Physicians and the Royal College of Nursing have recommended that the NHS implement the use of a single patient monitoring form in place of the more than 100 different forms which are currently in use in NHS hospitals throughout the country.
In April 2012 the Master of the Rolls, Lord Neuberger, announced that he would be endorsing a new pilot scheme within the Court of Appeal Mediation Service. The scheme would see the automatic referral of appeals to mediation for any personal injury or contractual claim worth less than £100,000 with judges open to recommend mediation for claims of any value if they feel it would be of benefit.
