TriHealth slashes contract review time 75% with LegalOn

TriHealth’s six-attorney legal team handles more than 1,500 contracts a year across physician employment, clinical trial, SaaS, and complex service agreements while meeting a 10-day initial-review target. Long-form clinical trial and vendor contracts required manual checklist reviews and redlining of compliance-heavy clauses (HIPAA, data privacy, indemnification, IP, Medicare/Medicaid exclusions). Missed clauses, delayed reviews, and inconsistent attorney approaches frustrated business stakeholders and raised compliance risk.

After vetting multiple AI tools, TriHealth adopted LegalOn Review to accelerate contracting without ceding legal judgment. The team layered LegalOn’s attorney-built playbooks with its own standard terms, using AI to flag high- and medium-risk clauses and propose model language while attorneys retained final say. LegalOn Assistant summarizes redlines and drafts email-ready explanations so counsel can share feedback without writing summaries from scratch.

Clinical trial agreements that once took hours are now reviewed in about 20 minutes—a 75% reduction in review time—with faster turnaround across contract types. Running every agreement against the same playbooks improved consistency and helped enforce policies such as excluded-provider and network-access rules. AI alerts catch missing clauses (e.g., anti-kickback, insurance thresholds, access-to-records), raising review quality and freeing attorneys for acquisitions, committee work, and regulatory counsel.

• • Attorney-built playbooks plus in-house terms deliver speed without surrendering human control over compliance decisions.
• • Uniform playbook-driven review reduces reviewer inconsistency and catches clauses checklists miss.
• • AI summaries and redline explanations free counsel capacity for higher-value legal work.
