| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Draft a short request that lists the treatment the lawyer has marked, the provider, the cost if a quote is on the file, and the date it is needed. Do not argue liability and do not say the funding is approved. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer settles the request and decides which treatment to ask for. The letter goes out only after the lawyer checks it. Do not promise the client that funding will be paid. Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply, and a breach may be notifiable. |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to the linked source and check for material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: Draft a short request that lists the treatment the lawyer has marked, the provider, the cost if a quote is on the file, and the date it is needed. Do not argue liability and do not say the funding is approved.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer settles the request and decides which treatment to ask for. The letter goes out only after the lawyer checks it. Do not promise the client that funding will be paid. Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply, and a breach may be notifiable.
- 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. List only treatment the lawyer has marked, with the quote if there is one.
2. Do not say liability is admitted or that funding is approved.
3. Keep a scheme-funded care need out of a damages request.
4. The lawyer reads the letter before it is sent.

## 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.
