Thanks to you and others for the links provided.
That is exactly the type of thing I remember reading about. The people need to band together and hire a lawyer to force some drastic changes. I dont like to hear about lawsuits but sometimes it is the only way to force changes to happen.
Can you imagine if you had to wait 1 year or more for a life insurance claim to get processed because you needed the final ME report that declared how the person died. Some insurance policies are written in a way that pays more if people die a certain way. It is these types of things that people have to wait more than a year to get their results.
It seems if a lawsuit was ever won then the plaintiffs could even claim they want interest on the money that they would have received if it would have been done quicker. They would probably have to establish what is a reasonable average time a ME report should be processed. People are generally patient up to a point. But these kinds of delays are totally ridiculous.
