A claim requires documentation of a qualifying diagnosis - primary lung cancer, squamous-cell throat cancer, or severe emphysema or COPD at GOLD Grade III or IV - made between March 8, 2015, and March 8, 2019. For many claimants, that means tracking down records from clinics, hospitals, and specialists they may have seen a decade ago, some of which have since closed, merged, or changed systems. That's the work Medchart does. Claimants provide their information and sign a consent authorization. Medchart collects the records from identified providers and returns them organized and ready to submit. "We're grateful for the trust placed in Medchart. The Court-approved Compensation Plan is a landmark settlement for Canadians harmed by tobacco, and we take seriously our responsibility in it: helping eligible claimants navigate a fragmented system to retrieve the medical records their claims require."
