AI tools can be useful as a “starting point,” but they’re limited in the ways that matter most after a catastrophic spinal injury.
In Kenner, cases frequently turn on specifics like:
- How the crash or incident happened (speed, impact angle, traffic control, scene conditions)
- Whether symptoms appeared immediately or developed later
- The medical record quality from the first ER visit through follow-up specialists
- Documented functional limits (transfers, mobility, bladder/bowel involvement, skin risk)
AI calculators may ask for answers that feel straightforward—injury severity, age, and basic treatment—but they usually cannot accurately evaluate your imaging, neurological testing, or the clinicians’ prognosis. That’s why two people with similar diagnoses can end up with very different valuation outcomes.
