MoveDocs

MoveDocs is a cloud-based personal injury platform helping attorneys and healthcare providers reimagine workflows and drive efficiency through a patient’s journey to recovery. Our mission is to apply technology to make healthcare more accessible for under and uninsured personal injury patients, so they have access to the healthcare they need and deserve. Our HIPAA compliant platform makes it easy for patients to find and schedule care, and for attorneys and providers to quickly share case-critical documents. This eliminates countless phone calls, emails, and faxes, and frees up staff so firms and providers can focus on growing their own businesses while achieving the best outcomes for their clients.

MoveDocs was founded in 2003 by physicians who saw the pain created by the manual, cumbersome process servicing personal injury cases. We have grown aggressively, providing personal injury servicing support for thousands of medical providers and attorneys across the country. And we’re just getting started.
