Box 1988 M-28 Santa Ana, Ca 92702 . . '4 RE: Consulting Agreement Dear Ms. Buenafe: Thank you for your help conceming the renewal of my consulting agreement. Attached is my fee schedule for services provided in my office. These are factored from the Medicare actuary rate tables to insure balance in the fee structure for time spent on testing and interpretation. Since my last contract, I have changed the minimum evaluation procedures to equal those provided in my Medical-Legal practice. As an expert witness, I am called upon to testify in depositions and in court on cases related to hearing loss and noise exposure. This requires that appropriate documentation and evidence be provided conceming the relationship of the hearing loss to employment and apportionment for medical and non-industrial causations. Typically, the average cost per patient will be approximately $500.00. Should further testing or a long report with research may be an additional $250.00. I am currently the expert witness for the ARCO Medical Group, Valero-Wilmington Refinery, the State of Califomia Speech Pathology and Audiology Board, as well as witness for both defense and applicant personal injury cases. I am also in the final stages of finishing my dissertation for my Clinical Doctorate from Central Michigan and Vanderbilt Universities. I also possess 29 years experience. I have attached my resume for your review. Attached is my malpractice insurance information and as you will see, I have already named the City of Santa Ana into my additional insured. I would like the term of the agreement to be longer than a yea, possibly 3 years. If I can be of further assistance please do not hesitate to call.
