Expert Witness Services
SIIM provides expert witness services to assist in litigation by reviewing cases, provide an expert opinion or testify in court to settle disputes in the healthcare imaging and IT field. SIIM participated in several cases, including:
-
A hospital disputed whether a PACS vendor met all the requirements as specified in its RFP resulting in the vendor having to restitute their payments and de-install the equipment.
-
A vendor disputed whether a contract was correctly awarded based on their specifications, resulting in a rebidding process.
-
A hospital claimed equipment failure which prevented a radiologist from correctly diagnosing a patient, who passed away. Review of the audit trails revealed that the radiologist did access the images for review and there was no software failure.
-
Poor integration between a radiation planning system and LINAC caused patients to be radiated incorrectly and subsequently become paralyzed.
-
A PACS vendor was incorrectly accused of NOT providing certain requirements and did NOT owe a restitution.
