Becky
Mungai RN, BA, CLNC, PLLC
Operating Manager
Becky is a full-time Certified Legal Nurse ConsultantCM with over 25 years in nursing. As a patient
advocate Becky's desire to improve the safety in health care and the accuracy of medical insurance claims investigation is
a high priority. Unfortunately the medical system is not set up to "police" it's own and when unsafe choices are
made and people are injured those people need a voice. In addition to healthcare, when insurance companies unfairly and needlessly
under value and under investigate medical insurance claims Becky helps provide the "other side of the story". One
way of being the "voice" of the injured and the insured is to assist attorneys in their efforts to insist than when
a nurse, doctor or hospital is making unsafe choices and harming patients or the insurance company is unfairly under valuing
a medical claim they must be held accountable.
On the other hand, when a potential claimant
brings a case to an attorney and while there may have been a bad outcome for them or their family member - it is not always
the fault of the doctor, nurse, hospital or insurance company. Becky's job is to help the attorney understand this difference.
In
addition to working up cases in all medical/nursing specialties, Becky has specialized knowledge in Obstetrics, Birth Trauma/Injury,
Neonatal and Pediatric and Adult Emergency/Trauma cases. With over 2,000+ deliveries as the primary neonatal nurse
and 12 years in the Emergency department, Becky's expertise is invaluable to attorneys. In reviewing the medical
record Becky is able to "paint the picture" for the attorneys detailing "what happened" and what "should
have happend" - according to the standards of care and policies and procedures. Having recent clinical experience
in Pediatric Emergency/Trauma RN and as a full-time Certified Legal Nurse ConsultantCM, Becky is uniquely qualified to bring her attorney-clients accurate, up-to-date healthcare
knowledge needed to understand their cases. In doing so, Becky is able to educate her attorney-clients and improve
their performance.
Becky holds a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and has experience in teaching, counseling, lecturing
and is a published author.
