For Immediate Needs Assessments

Medication evidence fast enough to hit your INA deadline

An Immediate Needs Assessment runs on a clock, not a convenience. You're expected to identify a claimant's care and rehab needs within days of instruction — but the medication picture that shapes those needs is scattered across a GP summary, a discharge letter, and records you haven't received yet. Allmeds pulls it together and flags what matters before you start writing.

Built for the case managers conducting INAs under the Rehabilitation Code.

Built around the pressure points of an INA

The clock starts on day one

Under the Rehabilitation Code, an INA is commissioned early and expected back fast. Chasing a full medication history from GP records and discharge summaries eats into a window you don't have.

Risk hides in the gaps

Polypharmacy, sedating drugs, and unmanaged pain regimens all affect the care and rehab needs you're assessing — but without pharmacological expertise, they're easy to miss until they surface later.

Recommendations need to hold up

Funders and instructing solicitors expect your care and rehab recommendations to stand up to scrutiny. A medication concern raised without evidence behind it weakens the report.

No pharmacology degree required

Allmeds does the pharmacology and gives you the decision inputs in plain English — what's being taken, what it means for the assessment, and what to raise with the treating team.

Evidence you can drop straight into the report

Every flag carries its reasoning and its source — MHRA guidance and the clinical evidence behind it — so what reads simply on your screen stands up when the INA report is reviewed by the funder or challenged at dispute. You raise a medication concern with confidence instead of a hunch, on day one instead of week three.

Common questions

What does Allmeds do for an Immediate Needs Assessment?

It gives you a full, evidence-backed medication picture for the claimant — every prescriber, every pharmacy, reconciled against the injury — in time to inform the INA report rather than trail behind it. Interactions, sedating regimens, and polypharmacy that affect capacity for rehab are flagged with the clinical reasoning attached.

How fast is this compared to chasing GP records?

Upload whatever you already have — a GP summary, discharge letter, medication list — and Allmeds returns a full appropriateness read in minutes. You are not waiting on a GP surgery to respond before you can start drafting the report.

Will the flags stand up when the report is reviewed?

Every flag is cited — to MHRA guidance and the relevant clinical evidence — so a medication concern in your INA report reads as a supported clinical finding, not an assumption.

Do I need a pharmacology background to use it?

No. Allmeds does the pharmacology and gives you the decision inputs in plain English: what the claimant is taking, what it means for the care and rehab needs you are assessing, and what to raise with the treating team.
