What we look for in our Medical Experts
Alignment to Our Vision
At Red Health, our vision is to seamlessly blend empathy and objectivity into the medico-legal journey. We aspire to set a new standard by humanising the experience, where every evaluation is not just legally sound but deeply ethical. We believe relationships and trust are the guiding forces in every interaction, reflecting our commitment to making a positive difference in people’s lives.
We seek to engage with medical experts who share our vision.
Pre-Requisites
Requirements vary by specialty and context of use i.e., where their medical opinion will be utilised. Minimum qualifications include registration with AHPRA and completion of specialty-specific medical training. Medical practitioners will also need to undertake medico-legal related training to obtain accreditation and certification. There are many courses to choose from, and the specific training required will depend on the practitioner’s specialty and the type of referrals they will receive.
At Red Health, we recognise the importance of supporting our medical experts and their continuous professional development. Therefore, we offer tailored training plans to help medical practitioners not only obtain the necessary accreditations but also receive ongoing education and coaching to excel in their roles as medical experts.
