Nursing home experts for insurers and claims teams
Expert Consulting Services provides nursing home and elder care experts, and that is the only thing we do. Claims professionals, risk retention groups and third-party administrators use us the same way defense counsel do: for a fast, independent read from someone who has run a building.
Our panel includes licensed nursing home administrators, directors of nursing, wound care nurses and physicians, including geriatricians, for matters in all 50 states.
Who we work with
- Carriers writing long-term care and senior living liability
- Risk retention groups and captives
- Third-party administrators and claims managers
- Defense panel counsel on long-term care claims
What we do for claims teams
Early claim assessment
An expert read on a new nursing home or assisted living claim, before defense costs build: what the records show and which way it leans.
Record review against the regulations
Care measured against the federal requirements surveyors use: 42 CFR Part 483 and the State Operations Manual, Appendix PP.
Experts for defense counsel
CVs, fee schedules and availability within 24 hours, with the conflict check done. More than one expert in each area, so a conflict doesn't stall the file.
Facility risk review
A facility's public CMS record (star ratings, staffing, inspections and penalties) read by a licensed nursing home administrator or director of nursing, with a written summary.
Mock surveys
An on-site review the way state surveyors look at a building, where an ECS expert is near the facility.
Deposition and trial testimony
Experts for depositions, trials and arbitrations on standard of care, staffing and regulatory questions.
How it works
Call or email
Tell us about the claim or the facility. A licensed nursing home administrator reads it, not an intake form.
Conflict check and a match
We check conflicts and send the right expert's CV and fee schedule, usually within hours.
Secure records
Records move by secure, encrypted email or platform. We sign HIPAA business associate agreements.
A clear answer
The expert gives an independent opinion. Fees are never contingent on the outcome.
