## Checking plan

**Line-by-line review**

Review the complete output at the level of each line, paragraph or clause; check facts, meaning and omissions.

- What the AI does: From the agreed settlement terms and the Medicare and Centrelink notices received so far, draft the deed clauses dealing with who notifies each agency, who pays each charge and from what, the timing of payment against the release of funds, and the treatment of any amount still to be assessed, using the firm’s approved deed precedent.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer checks the clauses reflect what was agreed, that the client’s net position after charges is correctly explained, that no amount is released before the agencies’ charges are cleared, and settles the deed.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Check the clauses name the payer who must notify and pay the Medicare charge.
2. Confirm the net settlement statement deducts every charge the client will bear.
3. Check the release of funds waits for the clearances the deed requires.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
