What is a Legal Nurse Consultant?

The American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants (AALNC) states, “The primary role of a legal nurse consultant (LNC) is to evaluate, analyze, and render informed opinions about the medical issues, delivery of health care and/or the health outcomes as they relate to cases or issues within the medical-legal arena.”

The AALNC also notes the field of legal nurse consulting has been around for thirty years, and www.aalnc.org defines the many ways LNCs are essential to litigation support. LNCs can collaborate, strategize, and educate in cases involving any aspect of healthcare, for the defense or prosecution.
