How to Redact Medical Records Release

In a courtroom scenario, a lawyer seeks permission to show medical records to the jury, but the defense attorney objects, insisting that the records must be redacted first. The term "redact" refers to the process of removing information that is deemed irrelevant to the jury's role in the case. The defense attorney argues that not all information in the medical records pertains to the case at hand, emphasizing that the jury should only see what is necessary for their decision-making. Gerry Oginski, a New York Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury Attorney, elaborates on the importance of presenting only relevant information to the jury in civil cases such as accidents, medical malpractice, or wrongful death.
