It is a working document, not the witness's evidence. Canonical page: https://ailawframework.com/precedents/personal-injury-and-compensation/treatment-chronology Law stated as at: 2026-10-23 Site index for agents: https://ailawframework.com/llms.txt ## Key facts - Kind: Other. A precedent that fits none of the other kinds. - Practice area: [Personal Injury & Compensation](https://ailawframework.com/precedents/personal-injury-and-compensation.md) - Jurisdictions: Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales - AI level: Yellow.

The library's protocol on AI-generated medical chronologies governs which tool may be used and the check of every row. This precedent is the table, not that protocol. ## Used for these tasks - [Prepare a treatment chronology from the medical records for a Personal Injury Commission matter](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-a-treatment-chronology-from-the-medical-records-for-a-personal-i.md) - [Build a PI medical chronology with AI](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/build-a-pi-medical-chronology-with-ai.md) - [Build a medical chronology from the record set](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/build-a-medical-chronology-from-the-record-set.md) - [Prepare an occupational-disease or dust-disease file chronology and issues list](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-an-occupational-disease-or-dust-disease-file-chronology-and-issu.md) - [Reconcile the claim form with the medical chronology and payroll evidence](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/reconcile-the-claim-form-with-the-medical-chronology-and-payroll-evidenc.md) - [Draft pleadings or points of claim from the medical chronology](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/draft-pleadings-or-points-of-claim-from-the-medical-chronology.md) ## How AI may be used The tool may extract dated entries with a page reference from records already in an approved tool, and a person checks every row against that page before the chronology is used. **AI may:** - Extract the date, provider, setting, complaint or event, findings and treatment, each with the page it came from - Flag a missing date, an illegible page, two entries that describe the same day differently, and a gap between providers - Produce the verification log with a row for each batch **AI must not:** - Must not add a diagnosis, a cause, a breach or a prognosis that is not written on the cited page - Must not enter material produced on subpoena, under the implied undertaking, or under a suppression or statutory publication bar into a generative tool unless the responsible lawyer is satisfied of the conditions in Practice Note SC Gen 23 para 9A, where that note applies - Must not put health information into a public tool. Practice Note SC Gen 25 para 6.8 says confidential or sensitive information is not entered into a public AI tool - Must not generate the content of an affidavit, a witness statement or the words of the client's evidence. Practice Note SC Gen 23 para 10 prohibits that use **The lawyer checks:** - A named person has opened the cited page for every row that will be used, and has signed the verification log - Conflicts are left as two rows. They are not smoothed into one account - The chronology is labelled as a working document. Experts receive the source records - Health records stay in a firm-controlled tool. Check ASCR r 9, APP 11, and whether a breach is notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) ## Authorities - [Supreme Court of New South Wales, Practice Note SC Gen 23, paras 9A, 9B and 10](https://supremecourt.nsw.gov.au/documents/Practice-and-Procedure/Practice-Notes/general/current/PN_SC_Gen_23.pdf) - [Supreme Court of Victoria, Practice Note SC Gen 25, paras 6.8, 6.10 and 7.1](https://www.supremecourt.vic.gov.au/areas/legal-resources/practice-notes/sc-gen-25-the-use-of-artificial-intelligence-by-court-users) - [Queensland Courts, Using generative AI (page directing lawyers to the accuracy-of-references practice directions)](https://www.courts.qld.gov.au/going-to-court/prepare-for-court/representing-yourself/using-generative-ai) ## Full text and drafting notes The full text and the drafting notes are not part of this public page.
