Personal injury demand package

Demand package

Direct answer

A personal injury demand package is the full submission sent to a carrier: the demand narrative plus the medical records, medical chronology, itemized billing, wage documentation and indexed exhibits that support it. The carrier evaluates the package as a whole, so organization, pagination and cross-referencing materially affect how the claim is reviewed.

The standard components

  • Demand narrative with a stated response deadline
  • Index of exhibits with page ranges
  • Medical chronology, cited to record pages
  • Complete medical records by provider
  • Itemized billing with a reconciled specials summary
  • Wage and employment documentation where earnings are claimed
  • Incident evidence: report, photographs, statements
  • Out-of-pocket receipts and, where documented, future care recommendations

Why organization changes the outcome

A reviewer working through an unindexed 600-page attachment set has to reconstruct the case themselves. A package that is classified, deduplicated, paginated and cross-referenced lets them verify each assertion in seconds.

Where packages usually fail

  • Records referenced in the narrative but never attached
  • Duplicate copies of the same records from different sources
  • A specials total that does not match the attached bills
  • Treatment intervals left unexplained
  • Photographs and reports with no citation anchor in the letter

FAQ

Common questions

What goes into a personal injury demand package?
The demand narrative, an exhibit index, a cited medical chronology, complete medical records, itemized billing with a reconciled specials summary, wage documentation, incident evidence and out-of-pocket receipts.
Should the chronology be attached or summarized in the letter?
Both approaches are used. Attaching a cited chronology as an exhibit and referencing it in the narrative keeps the letter readable while preserving verifiability.
