Cambridge Economics Group.

Cambridge Economics Group (CEG; West Des Moines, IA) has launched MedMal Express (med-malreports.com), an online subscription service for law firms and attorneys who handle medical malpractice cases. Subscribers to the service can evaluate any number of cases and scenarios to generate possible settlements and settlement predictions. The service factors in the lawsuit's jurisdiction, the age and gender of the patient, and gives the average settlement and judgment. It is targeted to both plaintiff and defense attorneys and evaluates different case strategies, such as adding or dropping a client and changing an accustion, and compares payments in different scenarios, such as when a case is dismissed or if a patient's medical outcome changes. The service can also be used by insurance companies to calculate how much money to reserve in a case. Subscriptions cost $95 per month.
