In the Administrative Litigation, the reports issued after an investigation in AM, are considered as evidence under the provisions of the General Organic Code of Processes and such reports will be totally dependent on the knowledge and expertise of the Medical Auditor, despite these premises there are cases in which the reports made by the Medical Audit Committee have served for decision making in cases of health liability.
