Testing VerixAi™ With 35 Medical Records: “I Wanted to See If It Could Think With Me”
When you've spent 20 years as a medical librarian navigating complex medical literature and legal research, you develop a keen eye for tools that actually deliver on their promises. Michael Graham specializes in medical and scientific research for litigation. His work regularly involves reviewing tens of thousands of pages of medical records to identify the key clinical questions that shape precise, defensible search strategies.
Michael decided to put CorMetrix's VerixAi to the test with a rigorous evaluation using real medical records from his work.
What impressed him wasn't the speed or the automation. It was that the platform could think alongside him: testing ideas, following leads, and uncovering context inside the chart. It felt less like a tool and more like a partnership with the medical records themselves.
The Challenge: Finding Answers in Thousands of Pages
His work requires extracting key details from complex medical records, a process that’s earned him a reputation for thoroughness and accuracy.
But even with expertise, finding specific answers means sifting through dense clinical documentation, cross-referencing dates, and tracking down details buried across multiple records. The traditional approach: search, read, search again, hope you didn't miss anything.
Putting VerixAi Through Its Paces
He tested VerixAiä with a complex case: hundreds of pages across 35 separate medical records.
Within minutes, VerixAiä generated an organized, source-cited chronology. But he wasn't satisfied with surface-level results. He wanted to stress-test the platform's accuracy and clinical understanding.
"VerixAi processed hundreds of pages from 35 separate records and generated an organized, source-cited chronology in minutes. Every entry linked back to its source in the record and spot-checks confirmed the accuracy."
Beyond Automation: AI as a Second Brain
What happened next revealed VerixAi's conversational capabilities. He could ask the platform questions and receive precise answers with source citations.
He began asking conversational questions:
"When did the patient start Plavix?"
"When did they resume skiing?"
"Was consent documented before the procedure?"
Each query returned precise answers with exact source citations: page numbers, document references, and context. The platform wasn't just regurgitating text. It understood medical relationships, clinical timelines, and legal significance.
"It didn't feel like automation; it felt like a conversation with the record itself. I asked; VerixAi found. Together, we uncovered insights that would've taken hours to find manually."
What Makes VerixAi Different
Michael highlighted several features that set VerixAi apart from traditional medical record review tools:
SmartCodes: Clinical Translation Built In
VerixAi's SmartCodes feature automatically detects ICD-10 codes across the entire record set, translates them into plain language, and links each one back to its source note. As he described it:
"It's like having a built-in coding auditor that speaks both 'clinician' and 'attorney.'"
Record Integrity & Gap Analysis
The platform includes tools for Record Integrity, Gap Analysis, and Vulnerabilities. These features surface missing data, inconsistencies, and potential compliance issues before they become problems in discovery or deposition.
These aren't just organizational tools. They are strategic advantages that help legal teams identify weaknesses in documentation that opposing experts might exploit.
Complete Source Verification
Every insight, every finding, every chronology entry includes a direct link to its source document. This isn't just good practice. It's litigation-grade provenance that holds up under cross-examination.
The Workflow Transformation
The difference wasn't just about speed, though processing 35 records in minutes rather than hours created significant time savings. This allowed him to reallocate his time toward higher-value work.
As he described it, instead of spending hours searching through records for specific details, he could focus his time on analysis, report writing, and case development.
"The workflow difference is huge. Instead of spending hours searching through records, I could focus that time on analysis, report writing, and case development."
Built by Clinicians, for Legal Professionals
He noted that VerixAi wasn't built by legal tech generalists trying to understand medicine. It was built by physicians and clinical informaticists who understand both the complexity of medical care and the legal requirements.
The platform is HIPAA compliant and SOC 2 certified, designed specifically for attorneys, expert witnesses, and legal nurse consultants who can never compromise on security, accuracy, or defensibility.
And for professionals who work across multiple cases, the platform offers features like DepoPrep summaries, vulnerability reports, and interactive timelines. All are designed to maintain context from discovery through defense.
AI as Partnership, Not Replacement
His experience reflects what many legal professionals are discovering: the future of case preparation isn't about AI replacing expertise. It's about AI partnering with experts to deliver clarity, speed, and insight.
"The future of case preparation isn't AI replacing expertise. It's AI partnering with experts to deliver clarity, speed, and insight."
For a medical librarian with 20 years of experience, that's not a small endorsement. It's a recognition that even the most skilled professionals can benefit from tools that enhance their thinking rather than replace it.
In his own words:
"VerixAi is an incredible resource. I didn't think we'd see a medlegal AI this advanced and intuitive for a long time."
But perhaps his most crucial insight addresses the elephant in the room: the fear that AI will replace human expertise.
"Tools like this don't replace LNCs or experts; they just make our time more valuable by handling the repetitive tasks so we can focus on critical thinking and higher-level analysis."
He encourages professionals to embrace rather than fear this shift: "AI is here, and we all need to experiment with it to see how it fits into our workflow. If we're a one-trick pony and AI happens to 100% perform that task, now is the best time to know that and pivot."
